Wow! Stunning eye catching colours!!

It’s a lighter this year than usual. Or maybe the magenta notes are brighter? I dunno. But don’t care. It’s lovely 😊

It’s really striking 🤩

I had wild lady slippers on my property once upon a time. Two little girls with the best of intentions and loving hearts picked them for their moms. There were dandelions and violets in the bouquets as well. The lady slippers never came back as I knew they wouldn’t.

Oh that’s so sweet and disappointing.

Right on schedule? Meaning it blooms for you yearly? How lovely!

Yeah, this one blessed me with blooms annually. The other paphs in my collection are way dodgier.
