Alright, time to dredge up this thread again (since I'm not spamming the forum enough as it is :rollhappy: )!
I have, to my surprise, discovered two Paphs in low bud. I was prepared for no more Paph flowers for this year, since all the Paphs that flowered, or tried to, last year, are all working on new growths, and these aren't mature enough to produce any flowers.
It's my acmodontum that's in low bud. It had a spike when I got it last year, but that one blasted, and it hasn't really liked living with me. I think it might be on the road to recovery, since the fan that's going to bloom, has grown really well, and is larger than the two previous ones. Unfortunately, it will cost it these two fans, so as soon as the flower has opened, I'm snipping it.
The other one was a real surprise, since it's my urbanianum that I got this spring from Orchid Inn. Since it's NBS, I wasn't expecting anything from it till next year or something. So a very happy surprise there (my first Sam flower!).
And I might,
might have a third Paph in low bud, but I don't dare write anything, in case it turn out to be something else.
If, it is a bud, I'm going to be so freaking happy, I'll bounce around in my flat like a chinchilla on speed (no, I don't promote you feeding cute rodents with drugs, as a matter of fact, I don't think you should feed
anything drugs, it's just a metaphor).
Pictures will come later, when I have something to photograph.
