Paph. fairrieanum ('Red Wonder' x self)

[lori.b]

In bloom for the second time since I got it in September, 2021. It grows on the lower shelf of my light stand where winters seem to be cool enough. In the summer it enjoys the fresh breeze coming in from an open skylight. It's in Orchiata/perlite and I fertilize with MSU and CalMag twice a week.

Very nice. One of my favorite Paphs but no longer in my collection due to the cooler temps required to bloom.

Thank you. My plant photographer is gone for the day but I'll ask him to take another picture when he gets back.

Good job keeping it happy and blooming! Not easy for most indoor growers.

Is that two flowers on one spike?

Yes, indeed it is. It's fully open now and I will post a picture soon.

Great culture! I believe that is rather uncommon for this species?

Yes, not often bifloral.
