paph hookerae var.volonteanum X sib ('Vol-4' X 'Vol-1')
I have had this for a couple of years and it finally bloomed. It seems to be a slow grower for me.

Very nice! My volonteanums grow very fast and bloom nearly each year. Perhaps yours will do so, when get bigger.
 
Yes Rick your right. I have been messing around with lights and couldn't get this one right. So heres a couple from the green house. Sorry about that.

Really, nice to see ... I really need to try again with these. As for the colours I think that cool (reflected) indirect daylight makes them more purple and warm direct daylight more red/pink at least this is what I see with my cerveranums and callosum vinicolour. I guess both colours are right.
Thanks for posting,
Tim
 
Very beautiful plant and flower!

I am so jealous. I bought a young plant once but it died after only about 2 weeks (it was rotten at the base).
