Paph. micranthum eburneum, not so eburneum

[Daniel Herrera]

Here is a paph. micranthum I got from Big Leaf... Not eburneum, but I like it.

I like it too, but to be honest, I can't imagine any micranthum I wouldn't like.

It's gorgeous, I love the big pouch on this species. Small attractive plant with huge flowers, my perfect orchid!

I also love micranthum as well as armeniacum. I've promised myself that I'll learn to grow them well. Back to your plant, doesn't eburneum mean light pouch not necessarily white?

Awesome!

 

[SlipperFan]

That is really pretty. May not be pure eburneum, but it is very desirable.

 

[eOrchids]

Pretty bloom!

 

[Spaph]

Nice blooming.

I think it's lovely. The soft colors are wonderful.

Very nice, micranthum is one of my favorite species.

I have several micranthum labeled 'eburnum', I found if the growing area was relatively warm, the pouches come out white, if they bloom in winter or early spring, when their corner of the light garden is cool, they come out with a lot of pink. My 'normal' type micranthum have a good deal of pink no matter what time of year they bloom. If you want a snow white pouch try to keep it above 65 F at night, while it is in bud. Then go back to your normal temperature range.

I love micranthum.... but never able to keep them alive long.

 

[SlipperFan]

That is interesting, Leo. Thanks.
