Thanks for the right attribute albescent. We had a discussion about that, but I couldn't remember. Is it reasonable to stay with the name wolterianum or should it better be switched to appletonianum?

Thanks! Yes it is one plant with 4 inflorescences. I got it as a 2 shot medium sized plant in 2013 (not absolutely sure about the date). Roots and leaves are growing like weed since.

Two others in bloom:

Three flowers should open soon, I'm still hoping for the fourth... Sorry for the bad fotos, but the top shelf is hard to reach. Better ones will follow.

There is a first glimps of my Paph. St Swithin with four flower shots. I hope the total flower count will increase, too...

As suggested elswhere I covered a leaf partially with paper for over a week, but there war no change in colour where the paper has been. Rules that out too much light, or is stress by overlightening still possible? The new growing leaf is darker, but still on the light side; I can see still four...

Wow, well done!

Beautiful! The yellow spot on the staminode and the ink blotches all over it are very cute.

Very beautiful! I love the whole section...

Looking forward to see your fotos...

I would repot it and cut the infected shot as deep as possible and spray all parts with a fungizide. That may not be state of the arts but in such cases I tend to be overcautious... Fingers crossed!

Beautiful! In the pic the dorsal looks huge...

I just read the whole article, most enlightening. The thrips identification poster is great!

Lovely Phrag! I know that problem of greenhouses and selling lists. The dilemma starts with the intention of saving money...

Great! I love these evenly fine "sprayed" dark markings. Will the petals become more upright when the ondulation of the upper margin gets stronger?

Wonderful colour!

What an elegance!

Congratulation! Mine soon will bloom, too...

Maybe I had a different species/type of thrips because they only went for the thinleaved Amorphophallus and not for titanum or glossophyllus or my Paphs. which have lethery leaves. Never thought of but it seems naturally that there are different species of thrips. I just hope that treatment...

Fortunately Thrips seem to be highly specialised. I had a severe infestation on most of my Amorphophallus, but some others stayed untouched. I was lucky they didn't like my Paphs either, some of which had direct leaf contact with infestated plants but stayed unharmed.
