Flower sheath on my complex paph.
Default Flower sheath on my complex paph.

I guess the name is not registered, but the tag reads Paph. ([Elfstone x Henryanum] x [Lavender Lovely x P. Shamrock])

I bought it in bloom back in January. The then half mature fan is now sending up a flower sheath. It also has a small new fan going next to it.

We had some hot days and nights, but overall the weather has been quite cool, especially at night.
I thought this cool night triggered this plant to decide to bloom this time of the year, which I think is odd for complex paphs to bloom?

Or it has a strong influence from Henryanum which is from sub tropical Southern China?

Either way, I continue to put extra care on this guy by moving the pot between under LED setup by day and by the open window by night.

I'm curious to see how the flower develops.

The first picture shows the flower from this past winter. The following two pictures are about two week old and now the sheath is higher above the center of the plant and I can even see the bud inside.

Free flowering complex paph, how nice!
