Paph. vietnamense

[Hamlet]

First bloom. A nice fat pouch and small wonky petals, but I like it as it is. I'm happy about any Paph. species that decides to bloom on my windowsill!

Thanks for looking!

Is that from the flask you showed a couple of years ago? Those from Hilmar? I got a flsk as well, they are blooming sized but no flowers so far

 

[Hamlet]

No, this one is not from that flask. Though this plant is also from him. I got it at the same time I got the flask and it was not very long out of flask either, so it's not much older. The seedlings from the flask are close to the size of this plant now, so I'm hoping it won't be too long before they bloom. When did you get your flask?

 

[Bjorn]

I had to check up a bit, but it seems they arrived in April 2015, so two years now. I did expect flowers this year, but obviously not-at least so far....

Looove that pouch and the bit of wonkyness of the petals
doesn't bother me that much. I think it's quite pretty for
a first bloom.

Nice, thanks for sharing. Let us know if it opens more and how long the bloom lasts please.
