Not according to the illustrations in Orchid Wiz. I would post one, but am not sure if copyright laws allow this. In addition, a reputable vendor was selling some at our club's show last year (I almost bought one) and they did not have mottled foliage, either. It's possible, I guess, that the vendor had wrongly labelled plants and that the photos in Orchid Wiz are not of liemianum. Mistakes do happen!

I do have Salvadore Dali (a liemianum cross) and I would describe its foliage as green, but I suppose some might say it has a faint mottling.

Cheers,

Zain, as promised, some pics of my P.liemianum plants. Note the mottled leaves.
#1, a liemianum that was imported by a collector from the wild.



Another P.liemianum that is an outcross plant but made from a collection of varified genuine plants. Piece of plant and the flowers from it.

Roy thank you very much for the latest info, really like it and the photos are very nice.

Such a cuty
