Paph thaianum (thaianum 'Chou Yi Round' X sib)
Waiting patiently for this little plant to flower. Bud started to emerge since 3-17-2015. Probably two more weeks before this opens. This group of plants are in bloom when I visited Chou Yi Orchids in Taiwan last week. Our blooming season is slower than Taiwan (subtropical climate). My heater was still running this past couple days and tomorrow is May already.
I have this in moss because these were imported wrapped in moss. I don't want to disrupt the flowering. I tend to underwater so moss works well for my growing condition.
It's been almost two month since imported so a few of these are now potted into more open mix (adding sponge rock, bark, charcoal).
