Paphiopedilum adductum var. anitum

[JPMC]

This plant last bloomed for me in 2011. It now has one flower and one bud. It is definitely my slowest grower.

The dorsal is incredible in that clone. As dark as I have seen. Very nice.

What's the plants leaf span?

The plant is 12 inches tall and 13 inches across. The first growth had leaves that were about 1 inch across but the new growth that is blooming has leaves that are 2 inches across.

Really, really cool JP. The petals look like there is hieroglyphic symbols or writings on them! Secrets of the Egyptian gods reveled!

I was thinking the exact same thing! I was trying to read the left petal!

Gorgeous flower by the way!

See the post from Paphman910. I have not changed the way I grow it since that post was made. It's not a difficult plant to grow, just slow to grow.
