May 3rd 2024–Seven months later. The color of the seed pod deepens and size is increased

11/5/23 update: It’s been four days since the third bloom “officially” opened, yet it still hasn’t completely opened. Now the fragrance is twice as strong! It’s a lovely floral scent 💚💛

Second bloom looks kind of different compared to the first. Is that normal?

I got my prim from Etsy(mysterygardenstore). The guy was selling only three at the time. And I snatched one up. I didn’t know there were “fakes” until after the fact. Maybe message him to see if he has any?

October 2nd. 10:08 am Primulinum flower fell.

24 hours later In the back is already starting to brown. And there’s this gelatin-looking substance forming on pollen capsules and stigma.

September 6th, 2023 @ 8am This is my Primulinum In-Charm; primmie-prim-prim is what I call her. She has a soft floral fragrance that smells like puppy/dog shampoo, oats & honey with a hint of lavender. I was given a suggestion to self-breed Primmie by a paph grower I recently got acquainted...

Thank you again, Ray, and sorry for the miscommunication; my message was directed to @Morja . As she helped me get ahold of you, Ray.

Hi Dustin! I love your blog posts as they're very helpful to me; whether it's about lighting, pings, or breeding. I'm also excited about your recent paph cross between your Helenae and the dark Maudiae!

Hi! By the mention of Ray, I think we're acquainted from reddit! Nice to meet you :))

Although I just started my orchid journey this past spring-- I already found myself deep into the rabbit hole. Instead of simply collecting hybrids or species, I'm more interested in breeding my own and selling one day! My goal is to crossbreed one of three by the end of the year: Paph Ho chi...
