Paphiopedilum Pinocchio (glaucophyllum x primulinum) sequential/multiflower

Paphiopedilum Pinocchio (Paphiopedilum glaucophyllum x primulinum) is a highly appreciated and easy-to-grow sequential/multiflower hybrid, known for its ability to produce multiple flowers successively on the same flower stem.

The plant has a compact-medium growth, with broad, dark green leaves, slightly spotted or marbled, typical for the multifloral group. It is a vigorous and floriferous hybrid.

The flowers appear on long stems (30-50 cm), one after another (sequential blooming). Each flower is beautiful, with sepals and petals ranging from delicate pink-purple to lavender-pink, with greenish or brownish shades at the base. The labellum ("slipper") is prominent, in intense pink with darker spots or stripes. The overall appearance is elegant and exotic, typical for Paphiopedilum.
