Paph. laevigatum

[Camellkc]

This is one of my very first Paph obtained in 2014, slow growing and hate flowering without strong sunlight. I put it under direct sun this year for 3-4 months and 2 growths produces flower for me finally. This is the first growth for producing spike. Enjoy.

Well done. I have a few multigrowth Phil's that need coaxing too. Sigh ...

In my impression, laevigatum has more horizontal petal. But according to the shape of plant leaves, it is not roebelenii. interesting!
Attached pictures are my laevigatum, last year blooming.

I can recognize the left one is laevigatum “in charm” . I also have one division and it becomes a big clump after growing for few years. It flowers to me every year. I see one growth produces spike today, and will in bloom after one month.
