Decent DW for a first bloom. These measurements will all improve as the plant gets bigger.

This one is a winner!

Thank you!

Yes Charles E is quite slow growing and takes a long time to flower. It was over 10 years to rebloom from when I first purchased it in spike. 'Borneo' by comparison is a more vigorous grower and much easier to bloom.

This is going to be a very nice cross. Good luck!

Fungicide.

Fantastic! Amazing color and form. You should let Fred know. He would be thrilled to hear it.

For a 2 week duration, sitting in a tray of water should be fine. I would not let Phals, Catts, or other virus-prone genera to sit in the same water source however.

Ha yes I am not complaining :) I have only bloomed 2 stonei in my life, and those were the only 2 I have ever seen in person (including 15-20 years of OS meetings/shows). Luckily one of those I selfed and have seedlings... I am actually anticipating a couple from a Taiwanese flask to bloom...

"No biggie, Just casually blooming stoneis over here..."

Paph rothschildianum 'Charles E' FCC/AOS

Amazing! Still have not bloomed mine. Any secrets?

Nice roth flower but I am surprised the plant is blooming. I would cut the spike and let it work on recovery.

Is that the correct label? The plant in the pot looks like a dendrobium.

According to the calculator on the FirstRays website it's 117 ppm N. https://firstrays.com/fertilizer-ppm-calculator/
