Advice for growing Paph. rothschildianum

[naoki]

I also came across a brand new article on the ecology of rothschildianum, that has soil and leaf tissue data. The soil and extractable nutrient data comes from multiple locations in Sabah that still have colonies of roth, and there are leaf tissue values for several other paph species in Sabah.

This is the previous thread discussing this paper:

The lead author has several articles about Ultramafic/serpentine plants of Borneo.
I think you can download another one from research gate:
van der Ent and Wood 2013. Orchids of extreme serpentinite (ultramafic) habitats in Kinabalu Park. Malesian Orchid Journal Vol. 12: 39–54
This one is more like overview with lots of photos including in situ P. dayanum and P. rothschildianum. So it can be entertaining. I already sent this to Rick, but others may be interested in, too.

For people who are interested in ultramafic Nepenthes, he has this paper, too (I'm not sure if it can be downloaded):
