Update
Well after two months, the Reginae is doing well but the Guttatum never made an appearance. I went back to the grower and he admitted he had had poor results with them himself and offered me a replacement plant from his indoor stock. I settled on a Paph Phillipinense X Rothschildianum (St Swithin) because it matches most closely the environment I can provide. We'll see what appears in a couple of weeks.
In the meantime, I have a Maudiae which is showing healthy growth but no sign of a flower spike. It was in bloom when I purchased it about this time last year and grew a new set of leaves over the winter/spring. I have it on a gravel bed in a window facing south-east. Humidity stays around 70% and I water with rainwater and feed weekly-weakly.
Any other suggestions?
