Paphiopedilum USA Hybride 1 bloem

The Paphiopedilum is native to Asia and Central America. It grows among rocks and under trees to protect itself from the sun. The Paphiopedilum is also called “Venus shoe” because the lip of the flower resembles a shoe.

 

The shoe-shaped lip serves as an insect trap; flying insects are lured by scent and the promise of nectar in the flower. Once inside the lip, the insects can only exit through a narrow opening. Thus they touch the pistil and stamens, and they get the pollen on their bodies as a result. At the next flower, the pollen then lands on the pistil.
