All three are nice, but I'm partial to barbigerums.

Beautiful trio!

 

[Bolero]

I like them all! Looking at the 3rd pot, I might need to keep my plants more moist than I do.

I like all three. They are beautiful. I need to work on getting me those last 2 since I just got a fairianum recently. Congrats on the blooms !!

 

[SlipperKing]

Speaking of that third pot, Damas what is your growing media? I'm into all three but partial towards thr species!

Hi Rick, I grow all my paph the same : under artificial light, compost is a mix of peat (I think you call it peat), shredded hemp (again I am not sure it's the right term), shredded sphagnum moss, styroform and vermiculite. I put some clay pebbles in the bottom to drain. I never let it dry completely, always moisture in it.
