NoID Paph.

[Abel-Purete]

Hello!! I recently bought this paph for $10. Its wilted and has no roots. All dried. It was a rescue plant. The lady said she's not sure if its a hybrid or a species. But its still beautiful. Hopefully it'll grow roots and get better.

Best of luck! It has a lot of leaves. There are many success stories here on OB and many folks who could give you advice on saving it!

There's life in there, it should make it.

My paphio clair de lune has the same leaves. It looks similar.

A. It is a 'Maudia' type hybrid (or species). If from a mass producer, it is 99.999% certain that it is a hybrid. Even with a flower photo, it would be impossible to identify it further (unless it is a species).

B. Since it has few roots, plant in a material that is easy to keep moist, but not soaking wet. Place it in low light & high humidity, and make sure that it NEVER dries out completely.

To maintain high humidity, you might need to place it inside a clear plastic bag.

If you have any clear plastic pots of a suitable size (with Paphs, underpot rather than overpot), use it so you can see when you have new root growth.

C. If the plant tries to flower before it grows new roots, remove the bud. Plants in poor health often try to reproduce, thus hastening their demise.
