Paph micranthum

[OrchidIsa]

Another first for me! Got this plant 3 years ago (or is it 4?) The spike appeared in fall 2016 but stayed low and still for a year. Fall 2017, it started to grow again and bloomed for me!!! I never thought I would be able to bloom a micranthum but yes, I am! I find the flower really great, even if it's not super flat and all... What do you think?

Very nice one.

Great growing! Such a slow grower for me too... but the patience is worth it.

I have no luck with micranthum so I'm impressed! Very good color. Thanks for sharing.

Congrats!!
I bloomed my first two last year.
If anything, it's pink!

I have a third one in low spike tha hasn't moved at all in the last few months.
Then, Bryce Larkin ( Fumi's Delight x micranthum) in low sheath for like ever!!
I don't understand any advantage of asking such a long time to develop a spike to bloom. I mean a lot can happen during this time.
Why!!!!

I though malipoense was the worst, but ll the parvis except for delenatii and delenatii heavy hybrids have been about as bad when it comes to growing speed and time it takes to develop a spike.

My first armeniacum to spike just abored its tiny bud on New Year's day!
That was a major bummer.
I'm done with armeniacum. I'll dump them out.
I have enough of nice armeniacum hybrids that grow and bloom much better.

Now I have to do something about my micranthum that are shooting up stolons all over. lol

Do you do better with it than micranthum?

I have already thrown away some plants. I'm trying to get ready for possible shopping soon. hahaha

If you want my Hungsheng Pink (emersonii x moquettianum), it's still here but I can't wait too long.
Anything I don't want do not stay with me very long at all. They gotta go, go, go! haha
