The three most distinctive
Paphiopedilum species endemic to Borneo are arguably
Paphiopedilum rothschildianum,
Paphiopedilum sanderianum and
Paphiopedilum stonei. I'm happy to have examples of these species growing quite happily in this current setup, as well as
Paphiopedilum kolopangkingii, another Borneo endemic. These are still quite young, so I'm a few years (at the least) from being able to flower these.
However, a large 'seedling' of
Paphiopedilum lowii is currently in flower and that's a welcome sight.
Paph. lowii is one of the more widespread species and can found in the peninsular Malaysia, Borneo, lower islands of Indonesia and the Phillipines and unsurprising, stop at Wallace's line between Bali and Lombok.
