Paphiopedilum haynaldianum

This is a warm to hot growing Paph from the Philippines and is one of very few Paphs suitable for Singapore.  However, it is not common to see this plant being sold in our nurseries.  I got this plant many years ago accidentally because it was mistakenly labelled as a philippinense.

Above: The flower spike appeared about a month ago after the plant recovered from some fungal attack.

 
The flower finally opened yesterday morning and stretched out completely today.

    Hi Parry,

    This plant is currently only having 2 heads so cannot divide.

    Thanks for visiting my blog.
    Best Regards
    Joe

    Hi Parry.

    I have not seen this plant on sale in any of our nurseries. Will see if Song Orchids can order some from Taiwan.

    Best regards
