Paphiopedilum . Maudiae

For 2 years, i had problems growing paph or otherwise nickname" lady's slipper" orchid...breakthrough came last year when i tried watering them less frequent. In the past was everyday, now 2x per wk..n bingo, last 2 years have been rewarded w consistent flowering..another trick is bright but indirect light, best is sheltered or thr a window panel.

Paph maudiae..i call it " green slippers". Bought one Oct last year..n interestingly, it has flowered twice this year already. April n Oct..n each time flower can proudly stand upright for 2 + mths
