Growing spikes and some blooms!

Three vinis and one alba.

This alba is my first paph ever. It blooms twice a year. I divided it in half over a year ago. One half bloomed within 5 months after the dividing and I gave it away as a gift. The other half I kept but took a while to rebound and finally bloomed for the first time in November last year. Then it is about to flower again and growing a few fans. Back on its schedule I guess!

I have a few hybrids with In Charm White in them. Most have very similar looking flowers opening up white and green, some with light spots. Almost all turn pure white over time.

I have two in flower, one of them are mini size and its flower is almost the same size as the plant! looks sort of funny! One other is growing a spike with two buds on its end just like it did last season. and this one is my favorite of these hybrids. Yay!!!

a close up of Engraved Green King, In Charm White cross. as pretty as it is, I think it has a problem this time around. The flower is supposed to open like this and then lose green over time.
This time, the whole thing it turning yellow and I see four brown patches...something is wrong...
and it's only been open for short time.

Well, aside from that, this picture captured its beauty.
