Thanks!
Yeah, those leaves keep me from getting bored even when there are no flowers on these plants.

Deperle is so pretty in bloom and leaves are nice too I think. Ho Chi Minh is basically the same as Delenatii I read, or sceintists are still trying to figure out. They sure look very similar though! I thought it was supposed to be easy like Delenatii. maybe not.
It does have specific watering needs because of the rain season in its natural habitat. Do you give them enough water at right times? If not, they may not flower along with temperature variation.

I do have a few bulldogs. Unless you have large multi fanned plants of various size, they usually do not flower every year as fans take over a year to mature under regular home environment. At least that is my experience.
Newer complex hybrids with some warm growing species in the breeding background can grow fast and bloom more often. I have Pacific Shamrock (well known green complex) and henryanum (warm growing) cross, and this one grows fast and bloom twice a year. It produces very glossy and beautiful apple green flowers.

I think part of the problem is I never had real good humidity. Last summer it was better and should be from now on as I have a swamp cooler and misters now. I can't let it get real humid in winter still but it is around 45 or 50%. Not real high I know.

The humidity you have is more than enough. I grow all mine indoor, quite dry except for summer time, they all grow and flower fine.

As long as watering is kept up good, humidity doesn't matter much. unless it is really low like dessert.

Really lovely colour on that green one, and the others are looking good

slowly opening up more and more...

I love this kind of fresh green color!

This flower looks almost the same as the other hybrids have. They both have In_charm white in them.

Thing is the green color tends to disappear over time. oh, well...

Gorgeous. I like white Paphs, so the disappearance of the green color wouldn't bother me.
