I purchased this stunning Maudiae purposely with the bud still closed, thinking it would give me more time to enjoy the full life of the bloom- vs buying one open and not knowing how much time is left to enjoy the flower. However, it’s been a few days and it’s not opening. 😬 I’m worried that the change in environment is going to cause it to stale or (yikes) full on bud blast. Can anyone with more experience with paphiopedilums tell me how long these guys generally take to open? Should I be concerned or just be patient? Anything you might suggest to help her along, (other than good old general terrestrial orchid care?)

    Nice! The bud looks like it’s in good shape 🤞 Mine take around a month or two to for the inflorescence to develop and flowers to open. The mottled leave varieties seem be in the two month range. Would love to see a pic when it opens

      It doesn’t seem like it’s fading away, so I’ll just keep holding my breath. If it opens, I’ll def post a follow up. Thanks for the advice and encouragement!
