Nice flower, excellent photo. I have a Paph. Salvador Dali (liemianum x victoria-regina) that is working on it's 26th bud
on one stem and it's 11th flower on another. Rarely not in bloom.
It's funny, but you can find both type of leafes motteled ones and pure green ones within the same species in the section Cochlopetalum.I'd love to see more of those beautiful leaves! I go back and forth on which species in this section is my favorite, and the ones with mottled leaves usually go straight to the top! The flowers are cute on this plant.
Was this its first bloom? I have a victoria-regina with only one fan of leaves. Wondering how many years I have to wait.
On some of my plants the brown leaf tips are caused by a shortage of calcium. The plant needs it every day for cell growth. It is not trans-located from old leaves to the new leaves. Your rain water and RO water may be short on calcium and or magnesium. First Rays K-Lite fertilizer has cal mag in it. 12-1-1-10Ca-3Mg. It works for my plants with RO water.
