I grow species and standard-complex paphiopedilums. The following two complex hybrids, originated from (i.e., cross made by) the well respected Klehm Growers, are in bloom.
The first bloom is Paph. Beauhill x Paph. Hampshire High. [Paph. Beauhill (Paph. Beauvale x Paph. Winston Churchill); Paph. Hampshire High (Paph. Hellas x Paph. Via Solista)]. This is its first bloom.
The second bloom is Paph. Hanes Raven x Paph. Nulight. [Paph. Hanes Raven (Paph. Revaneh x Paph. Indian Ocean); Paph. Nulight (Paph. Fran Rothman x Paph. Inca)]. Although this bloom lacks a good form, I purchased it for the incredible spots on the dorsal sepal. Hopefully the second and subsequent blooms will have better forms.
