Bought as laevigatum in 1995, one growth one flower. I've posted this plant out of bloom for the basket thing.

Hot damn. That is a breeder!! Has this bloomed very frequently through the years? What a nice phillie!!!
 
Troy this is only the 3rd or 4th time to bloom but it really has taken to the basket. So I'm expecting to get more bang for my bucks in future years!
 
Try to cross it with roths, you might get a diff look of St. Swithin--like a mini PEOY.
 
Looks good. I decided to try one of my laevigatums in a wooden basket with sphag as well. I picked the smaller of my two plants because the larger one is in bloom, so I figured it's probably quite happy with my standard paph mix.
