Growing Paphiopedilums or Paphs is my main hobby. I also grow many other orchids such as phalaenopsis, dendrobium, coelogyne etc.

Paphiopedilum glaucophyllum
This is another Paph that is suitable for Singapore's warm weather. If grown well, this orchid will keep on flowering for a long time. This Paph was used in the past to produce many beautiful hybrids such as paph Shireen and the strong glaucophyllum influence can be seen in such hybrids. Most of the hybrids produced using glaucophyllum can be grown well in Singapore without air-conditioning. My friend used to grow his Paph Shireen in a 2nd Storey balcony in Pasir Ris and we all know how warm it can be in Pasir Ris.
