Paphiopedilum druryi is a species of orchid endemic to the Agastyamalai Hills of southern India.
Rediscovered in 1972 after its original description in 1870, wild populations were decimated by commercial collectors and it is one of the few plants that are listed as threatened by the Indian government and included in CITES[1] and the IUCN Redlist.
The species was found in the valleys of the Cardamom Hills and flowers in May and June.
The scape is 7 to 9 inches long and erect and hairy bearing a single flower.
The dorsal sepal is broad, pointed and bent forward and greenish to yellow in colour with a purple medial stripe.
