Default Paph Callosum cultivation

Just bought 4 plants from a German nursery(all look fine).
But i couldn,t help myself from buying a Paph Callosum
I mainly bought it because of the very mottles leaves & figured it
would grow in the same enviroment as my Chamberlainianum.
It has 3 growths(it has flowered before) & for the price about $25
i thought it was a bargain.
So any hints/tips etc

I don't and can't grow paphs, but I did have a callosum which I kept alive. It grew and bloomed in very very low light. (It could have used a little more light, though.)

both are relatively-low light species. maybe slightly brighter than a phal but nothing like catt light. they can grow side by side.

If my memory can be trusted (which it absolutely can not), mine flowered in early fall and again around March.
