A Few More Slipper Orchids – Paphiopedilium Orchids

Here are a few more slipper orchids (paphiopedilium orchids) that I’ve photographed recently. The first four of them were on display as part of Longwood Garden’s Orchid Extravaganza.

This final paphiopedilium orchid was photographed in the Orchid room at the U.S. Botanic Garden.

I’m always amazed at all the different combinations of spots, stripes, color and shapes of the paphipedilium orchids.
