I have alot of Paphs. About 20. Mostly species, some hybrids. I have read all the "cultural" info on these and am amazed that they seem to require High levels of humidity. I can provide Humidity levels at 50-60% but really no higher.
Does anyone find Humidity levels to be a problem in growing and blooming paphs?
I have: Paph. lowii, haynaldianum, venustum, niveum, bellatulum, spiceranium, insigne, fairrieanum, charlesworthii; Paph. Jade Dragon, Lynleigh Koopowitz, Harold Koopowitz, Delrosi, Ho Chi Minh, Dellaina, Druid Spring, Leeanum, Vanda M. Pearman, Fumi's Delight.
I use supplemental fans, a cool-mist humidifer, and supplemental lighting with compact fluourescents, in addition to natural light on the windowsills
(SE and SW exposure).
