Here are some fotos of my paph lawrenceanum var hyeanum.
Sorry for the quality but my camera can't do better. The colour of the third foto is closest to reality.
Growth is good, flowering once a year only rootgrowth is slow. Last repotting was this spring.

Looks like a very healthy plant.... flower symmetry not as ideal and staminode is crooked.... but it flowered! That's a blessing... mine is thinking about blooming LOL.
 
very nice one! And totally different from what i showed some days before...
All my normal lawrenceanum are flowering in spring. Is yours always flowering at that time?
 
Thanks! It was flowering three times in november, the first bloom was in late december.
Unfortunately it has not a good symmetry, especially the staminode bothers me a lot. Three times it was bent to the left only in 2017 it has a tendency to the right. (Fotos 2019, 2017) Not bending to the same side each year I wonder how symmetry is coded genetically...
Is there a possibility It gets it sometimes right just by chance?
