Coming up on five months post flasking of this seedpod, Paph. Jennifer Stage frma. alba (godefroyae x philippinense) x leucochilum frma. album. I’m expecting albino flowers from this weird backcross of an intersectional Paph hybrid (Polyantha x Brachypetalum) crossed back to Brachypetalum...
So I had a light fall on my Paph and snap the flower spike. I had a potential pod growing on there and out of curiosity cut it open to find this. Are these seeds? I dropped them into the parent plant’s media in the hopes that fungi are living in it.
I’ve been trying to track down a P. vipanii in the US without much success. Any leads will be much appreciated! I’m also interested in other Brachypetalum x Polyantha hybrids.

It may be hard to tell in this photo, but I’ve noticed slight browning along the edges of most of the leaves of this Complex x Brachy Paph. I’ve also noticed brown/dryness in the middle of one of the leaves.
Some background on this plant:
Humidity: 50-75%
Temperature: 68-76 degrees...
