It produces a single, broad, rounded bloom in soft pale yellow to greenish tones, often with a slightly sweet fragrance. The plant itself is medium-sized with thick, glossy green leaves arranged in a fan, and each mature growth blooms only once. In nature, it grows on limestone cliffs under filtered light, which contributes to its preference for airy, well-drained conditions in cultivation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"relative -mx-px my-[-0.2rem] rounded px-px py-[0.2rem] transition-colors duration-100 ease-in-out\"\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"877\" data-end=\"1349\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1rud3ea\" data-start=\"877\" data-end=\"994\"\u003eOne of the \u003cstrong data-start=\"890\" data-end=\"932\"\u003elargest-flowered Paphiopedilum species\u003c\/strong\u003e (up to ~9–12 cm wide) \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"vd580r\" data-start=\"995\" data-end=\"1054\"\u003eSoft \u003cstrong data-start=\"1002\" data-end=\"1034\"\u003epale yellow to green flowers\u003c\/strong\u003e, rounded and full\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1el850a\" data-start=\"1055\" data-end=\"1140\"\u003eOften \u003cstrong data-start=\"1063\" data-end=\"1100\"\u003efragrant with a light sweet scent\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"6qwo5r\" data-start=\"1141\" data-end=\"1187\"\u003eSingle-flowered inflorescence (rarely two)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1ar7l7d\" data-start=\"1188\" data-end=\"1230\"\u003eThick, strap-like, glossy green leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"qfg671\" data-start=\"1231\" data-end=\"1315\"\u003eBlooms typically in \u003cstrong data-start=\"1253\" data-end=\"1275\"\u003espring (April–May)\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1bvwz1p\" data-start=\"1316\" data-end=\"1349\"\u003eVery \u003cstrong data-start=\"1323\" data-end=\"1347\"\u003eslow-growing species\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"relative -mx-px my-[-0.2rem] rounded px-px py-[0.2rem] transition-colors duration-100 ease-in-out\"\u003eCare Tips:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1jk9s4q\" data-start=\"1370\" data-end=\"1428\"\u003eLight: Bright, filtered light; avoid direct midday sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1m12g3w\" data-start=\"1429\" data-end=\"1523\"\u003eTemperature: Intermediate to warm (approx. 12–26 °C) \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1ji9czk\" data-start=\"1524\" data-end=\"1593\"\u003eWatering: Keep evenly moist, slightly drier in winter rest period\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1ex47oh\" data-start=\"1594\" data-end=\"1634\"\u003eHumidity: Moderate to high (50–70%+)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1mwf4ao\" data-start=\"1635\" data-end=\"1721\"\u003ePotting: Use airy, well-draining mix (bark, perlite, or limestone-based additives)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"xynxlh\" data-start=\"1722\" data-end=\"1787\"\u003eAirflow: Good ventilation is essential to prevent root issues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1bt3s2a\" data-start=\"1788\" data-end=\"1859\"\u003ePatience: Very slow to mature—can take years to reach blooming size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Begin With Plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62702734082419,"sku":"Paphiopedilum hangianum","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0910\/1665\/9315\/files\/Paphiopedilumhangianum.jpg?v=1775900940","url":"https:\/\/beginwithplants.com\/products\/paphiopedilum-hangianum","provider":"Begin With Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
