Paphiopedilum godefroyae

Quantity: 1 plant (Blooming size, 1–2 shoots)

Paphiopedilum godefroyae is a charming and widely loved slipper orchid, known for its elegant white to pale green flowers delicately patterned with soft spots and markings. The rounded pouch and broad dorsal sepal give it a balanced, graceful appearance, making it a favorite among both beginners and experienced collectors.

Native to Southeast Asia, this species is considered relatively easy to grow compared to other Paphiopedilum. It adapts well to warm, humid environments and rewards growers with reliable blooms when provided with stable conditions. A blooming-size plant with 1–2 shoots offers excellent potential for flowering in the near season.
