Very nice. I would like to make a comment. Pleasr take this as a reference and not a critic to your plant or culture. In nature, adductums/anitums have their leaves erect and hardy. They are capable of four flowers in their habitat. I have seen big and small compact plants. Why the leaves come up angled and straight, I dont know. One local collector grows them on a media mixed with soil andthey are surviving well. They were just flowering a month ago. Theres something in their habitat that I would like to learn, I hope it will be soon.

I will share when i get more data. Just recently, adductums are seen in good quantities in the wild, even seen along remote roads. I hope the demise of the other sp like philippinense, will not happen to this sp.
This law in the Phils prohibiting the sell of paph sp is just asking for more uncontrolled smuggling. Dont get it while other sp are ok.
