Paph. HENRIETTA FUGIWARA alba

[Ozpaph]

Small division from Nick Zurcher. Pouch a bit wonky. Got overhead watered this morning - sorry about the droplets. Will re-photograph when more flowers open (keen to use the new indoor lighting set up).

Very nice Paph primary. Looks like you'll have new buds developing for a while. Usually an easy vigorous grower. Fujiwara, with a J, btw...

I thought it looked like haynaldianum album:
Henrietta Fujiwara = primulinum x haynaldianum

One of my favorites. A strong grower and fairly easy bloomer. Thanks for sharing.

Very attractive. I kind of like the water droplets, things are very dry where I am at the moment.

good idea for the followup when more buds open.

Nice colour. Do you normally water the flowers?

 

[Ozpaph]

overhead watering misses nothing!
Its a bit more complex than that. The automated system waters the whole garden in sections and one GH is connected to that system. When we're home and during winter it waters for 1 min (the minimum for each station) twice a week. I hand water with tank water both GHs and avoid the flowers usually or move them inside the house.

Update - 3 flowers now open.

That is a high quality division you ended up with. You must of pay a little extra for that but well worth it.

PS. I think they're ready for another bath!oke:
