Paphiopedilum
A couple of days ago Kanyl and I went to Beetham Nurseries Orchid Day. I didn't mention having made any purchases. Either you don't know me or you are naive if you think I can visit such an event and come away empty handed.
So my choice was another Paphiopedilum at a very good price. It gave no details of species or variety so perhaps that was why the price was so good. However having had success with my other Paph I am fairly confident I can cope. One thing it tells me is it can stand lower temperatures then my P maudiae. How do I know this? Well the leaves are plain green where as maudiae has leaves covered in light blotches. Plain leaves can stand temperatures down to 10°C where as the patterned leaves only 15°C.
