The plant looks strong and healthy and the flowers are pretty and elegant....but, sorry to say this, the colours are much better and more natural in the first photos.

We're having a heat wave at the moment and plants suffer a lot. Can't bring the temps down enough. Also the colors are the same as in the first pics on the plant. must be the lighting outside.

Of course, the natural light outside without a shading cloth makes the difference.

Love this big boy, but my true love are the P. helenae and P. rungsiriyanum I've got in my Paph. collection
