Paph bellatulum

[Faan]

A few bellatulums I have in flower at present. I just hope I can keep them alive.

If you have qualms about keeping them alive you can spread the risk and give some to me I will be in the neighborhood on Saturday or Sunday. If the flasks still show no sign of fungus I will bring them along.

Oh, I got some limestone from a someone in Parrow and will bring some along for you to test on some plants if you want to. I think the bellatulums would appreciate it in their mix.

Grow them with cool night temps, (around 50F).

I have not experienced a temperature below 6C or 43F but it is wet when the temperature goes that low. Although the plants are not in the rain the humidity is high and everything stays wet. This is the time when I never know to water or not.

Tyrone it might be a good idea to pass the risk on to you if you replace when they pass on!

Beautiful bellatulums, Faan! They don't look like you're struggling with them.

I don't think I've heard that before, Lance. I've got two clones; one in the middle and one at the warm end of my intermediate greenhouse. The back end gets quite cool at night (50*F - 55*F). I'll move them down to that end today. Thanks.

I'm liking the first one.
Your doing better than me as I don't own one anymore:sob:

You are obviously struggling with them. Not. They are all beautiful. Great growing.

Nice, Faan! I like #3.

 

[SlipperKing]

How long have you had 4????? Did you get a compot? flask?

It took me several years for me to kill my first Brachy hybrid and I'm much wiser now than then so that deal doesn't sound too bad. If it lives, can I keep a division?

BTW, anyone have any idea of the maturation time of an insigne pod? I did a cross last may onto an insigne with a Maudiae type pollen and I'm wondering when I green-pod sow the seed?

I like all four that display - but the third one is the winner of the show.
