Paphiopedilum appletonianum (syn. wolterianum)

Paphiopedilum appletonianum (syn. wolterianum) is a small, mottled leaf species with bright pink petaled flowers held on tall stems.

The flowers have a unique form which makes them very attractive. This is an intermediate to warm growing species, so it will tolerate cooler nights in the winter months. Treat them like any other mottled leaf Paphiopedilum and they will thrive.

This is one of the easiest Paphiopedilum species to grow, and its compact size makes it great for those with limited space or for growing under lights.

This particular clone has produced flowers that are much more richly colored than others

PLEASE NOTE: Since this is a Seedling Population (not a Mericlone which produces exact duplicates), the picture is for illustration purposes only. No two plants will be the same from this cross, and they will flower in a range of possibilities coming from the two parents.
