This was seen at the San Francisco Orchid Show And Sale, an as yet unnamed hybrid. It is a cross of Paphiopedilum Fumi's Delight X Paph. Yellow Magic'. and was bred to intensify the colors. Side traits include the grooved pattern on the pouch to accentuate the petal pattern, the curious incurved petals that look ruffled along the edges, and that glorious heart-shaped staminode. All parents and grandparents are subgenus Parvisepalum, having rounded pouches with incurved rims reminding me of balloon flowers or Calceolaria.
