Paph henryanum

[SlipperKing]

First time to bloom this species. Picked this plant up from Cal_Orchids in Jan at the Paph Guild. Some of Norito's breeding from years ago as Paphinatics.
I'm doing much better with net pots then previously for this species.

Nice Rick. My henryanum's are also doing so much better now that they are in small net pots.

I spoke with Rick Lockwood, the other Rick on ST, to get caught up what's going on. He has been busier than a one legged man in a but kicking contest that's why we haven't seen much of him here in ST. At any rate I had to praise him for convincing me into trying baskets. I had great success with the wooden baskets at first but quickly switch over to the plastic net pots due to fast rotting wood.

Sounds like tigrinum culture, grow like a cattleya. Good candidate for s/h?

Looks nice...how long the flower may last in optimum condition?

Maybe I should try a net pot with mine, because it is doing very poorly.
