That picture of Todd's venustrum is amazing, I've seen other plants pictures that
look significantly different, is it a broad name and a large family ?

Speaking of Paphs, I have one in spike. I have four plants and this will be my second flower in the last three years.

Yes, Bree, it is Paph Satchel's Legend (Paph Satchel Paige X Paph Macabre). It hasn't bloomed in so long I thought it had rusted shut.
