Paphiopedilum keiki on inflorescence

[bigleaf]

I was at In Charm Orchids and saw this keiki growing on aborted inflorescence. It reminds me of a keiki on a phalaenopsis. September is hot and humid, not many flowers to see.



Picked up an alba Paph Mount Toro to grow. Heard that he has good ones.

I've not seen that before!

weird. What's the plant?

Unusual to me

air layering would be an option to promote root growth

I've got one that did that and was hoping the next growth it shot out would be normal
Nope, another keiki. And mine isn't even on aborted flower stalks, just new growths
Though the growths on the keiki seem normal
