A bit of a stubby one, grown a little on the bright side and later moved to a shadier spot. I think it has fully opened, but the petals have not fully stretched out.

Cool flower, although they usually have long inflourescences, in the same family as hainense, appletonium, dayanum, etc... how bright are you growing yours? You might want to check the roots
 
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it the snip today. I lost half of the original fan, it is under some stress. It was growing 14-16" below the edge of a 4 bulb T5 fixture (i think ~ 2000 or 2500fc), but I moved it to natural light about a month ago or so. It is doing better now, but probably needs more recovery time.
 
Very nice!! The problems could be from insufficient watering or too much K(potassium). Even root rot is usually due to these in Paphs, otherwise the roots like to be consistently moist or even wet
