It is 'Uncle Frank' x 'Hsinying'.

Thankfully, there are no mealy bugs. However some sort of pollen/plant matter is floating around and gets on everything. I have this paph in my little greenhouse but the stuff is in there too. The doors and windows are open so it id not a surprise. Still better than mealy bugs.
 
I have to tune into the choir.....nicely grown and compact plant with three spikes and a bunch of lovely flowers. That's not too bad for a plant you overlooked most of the time.
 
Thanks all!

Next spring/summer I know exactly where to put my lowii in the growing space. Possibly a few other multis too. It was in a bright corner of my little 6x8 greenhouse, which gets pretty warm and has great air circulation. However because it was in the corner I missed watering it as much as I should have. As a result, some of the leaves wrinkled a bit.
