Paph. Ho Chi Minh

Thank you for sharing.
Yeah, parvis seem to last rather short in bloom for paph standard.
I've only had two. first one (deperle or something) multi flowering but overall one month.
Armeni White lasts over one month.
They all have beautiful leaves and seems to bloom quite freely.

Does this plant have fragrance? Do they need special treatment? I heard delenatii and Ho Chi Min need dry and cool winter?? I'm not sure.
How do you grow yours during the winter?

Yours have the best flowers I've ever seen.
How big is your plant?
I would love to buy a division from you or trade if you ever want to do so.

There is no fragrance that I can detect. I grow it warm to hot with some of my Phals in fairly bright light. I water weekly with 125ppm MSU. During the winter I back off on the watering a little but not significantly. Our house is naturally cooler in winter. The thermostat is set to 68 and basically goes off at night.

It's a pretty big plant. I'll see what happens when I repot it. Sometimes they like to divide themselves! If it does I'll send you a PM and we can discuss. And thank you for the very nice compliment. I really like this plant too.

Very nice! Maybe it'll get awarded someday...

That is unlikely. Our society is no longer putting on our annual orchid show, and I live too far away from a judging center. Oh well....

Treasure to yourself though!
