Paph Gloriosum "Hallelujah" x Paph Black Currants "Tar Baby"

Actually, this flower has not yet fully opened, but I thought it looked kind of cool and enticing as is (almost there, but not quite, just giving you a hint of what's to come). An orchid "tease," if you will.

Anyway, this isn't really anything particularly interesting, orchid-wise, and I got the plant for like ten bucks a year and a half ago - i.e., it's not anything particularly rare or expensive. But you know, it might just be the best flower I bloom to date. I'm loving the spots and the color so far.

Updates as the flowering progresses. Enjoy. JOHN
