True to a certain extent, but anitum for a ling time was thought to be a darker form of paph aductum. Paph anitum has very dark flowers. They are just not a plant you can find many of. I am blessed...

I would still venture to guess not enough direct air movement. This in of itself can also be an issue if you have too much as it can dry out your plant very quickly.

I would not suggest repotting either. Fresh media dries out fast in the beginning and you must water more. I also wild collect live moss to grow in the top. That helps with my conditions by adding...
