Paph.micranthum 11 buds/flrs on 10 inflorescences

[dalachin]

My best blooming of this ~40-growth plant yet: eleven flowers/buds on ten inflorescences; one inflorescence is double-flowered. Haven't seen that before on micranthum, though the 50+ growth armeniacum has done it a couple of times. Growing in a 10" wire basket in a fine bark mix with a bit of oystershell. Grown cool in cattleya light, kept moist year round.

Incredible! I’m just trying to keep mine alive another year. What are your winter lows?

I try to keep the cool area in the mid to lower 50sF at night and it's usually 65-70F during the day.

Just incredible! What a knock-out plant! Well done!

Congrats on the amazing culture! I have a var eburneum that I purchased with a second bud on the spike. In my windowsill conditions it did not develop, and has never repeated the phenomenon, but I’ve always figured a superbly grown specimen could be capable of 2 flowers on a spike. Great growing!
