Default Flasking paph. Dianthum

Hey I'm flasking paph. Dianthum, I know it sounds pretty crazy, a beginer flasking but I thought it was worth a shot.
I'm getting a vial of seeds, they cost me $8 and some premade media.
Any hints, tips and info would be great!
Also photos of flasks with paph dianthums and other slipper orchids.

Where did you get the seed for those? I would be interested in some seedling if you ever have any for sale.
