    Smile Paph spicerianum

    My Paph spicerianum ('Taiwan Truffle' x 'Fat Boy') is in bloom for its first rebloom since purchase.
    It has taken a long time from sheath to flower. And I have another sheath in progress as well. One blemish on the pouch is seen on the right side. I am hoping the dorsal lifts up a bit more.
