My Paph Makuli 'Antisana', has done quite well this year. It has matured two growths and has another 3 starts. For some reason it has developed a 'horn' on the on the one pouch and the other has a 'thumb' on its petal. Kind of looks like the one bloom is pointing at the odd protuberance of the others pouch:(

The NS is 17,5cm, with a spike length of 49cm
The plant now measures a leaf span of 42cm



 
Very nice flowers. Bigger than the one we see here in Belgium in garden centers. Maybe it is tetraploïd?
 
What the hell happen?! Looks more like a pimple needing popped!

Thank the gods that my flowers don't look like ME!

Nice Gary, great to see a well grown plant, even if it has the weird, probably transitory lumps. Next year should be better.
 
Thanks all, based on all the comments on the confusion that my post titles generate, I think I should restrict myself to simple names in future?:p
