Nope... All mine are dead. And I can't really recommend it to people. I've tried several plants, and none were particularly vigorous. Flowers don't last all that long, plants are weak... I'm sure it is nice, but for my money I'd get a nice Paph. delenatii. Spend the big bucks (I haven't yet) and get delenatii v. dunkel, which has awesome color.
I do have a Ho Chi Minh (vietnamense x delenatii) that isn't dead, and has bloomed. But it also appears to be a fairly weak plant. It bloomed last spring, and I have yet to see a new growth.
I'm waiting to try vietnamense again until after another generation in captivity. The next flasks to come out should have more vigorous plants.
