Paphiopedilum dianthum
|
This is our second oldest orchid, purchased in 2002. It is Arne's first Polyantha, which is the sub genus characterized by having multi-floral flower stems. This slipper orchid is a native of Southwestern China and Northern Vietnam.

This orchid has faithfully flowered annually every year. We look forward to see this orchid do the same next year. I hope you've enjoyed this post. Until next time, have a great week.
