This is Lady Slipper Orchid?
This species is Paphiopedilum. All Paphiopedilum’s are known as ladys slipper. I think it is a hybrid of Paphiopedilum venustum (Wallich ex Sims) Pfitzer. I am sending you a photo of wild Paphiopedilum venustum
(Wallich ex Sims) Pfitzer from Maghalaya which is flowering in my home garden. This is strange but close to Paphiopedilum venustum. There are many hybrids of Paphiopedilums too. Somehow it doesnt fit into normal venustum. But leaves and pattern on flower matches.
