This is a first time blooming of Paphiopedilum Wössner China Moon.
I bought two medium sized seedlings from Cloud's Orchids about 3 years ago. Both plants have been a good grower, and this one came into low spike finally last summer, so it's been developing for a very long time!
It was also growing two pubs at the same time, so really good grower.
This one has broad leaves like hang, but the other seedling looks more like armeniacum with much narrower leaves. It might bloom soon it looks like.
I love yellow, so I am very much looking forward to the open bloom on this guy! :drool:
A bit on the culture, I have not repotted and they both are still in the same pot, old mix in that 2.5 plastic pot with their mix, mostly douglas fir bark, charcoal, perlite and sand among other things. I have been growing them by the south facing window with sheer curtain drawn.
Water when the pot dries up, about every 4 days or so.
I wish I had bought more at the time, but I was able to acquire a bunch more from different sources since.
These plants have attractive leaves and grow very well!
