Paph. St. Swithin blooming

I am very proud now. Not only Paph. St.Swithin spiked under my care, but I also kept the bud from blasting and here is the result:



Only one bloom, but I can understand: after all these mites attacks plant doesn't have much energy...




Also it emits some strange fragrance, not floral at all, and I can't describe it.



There is a lot of details in the flower:




The whiskers uncurled and it appeared that one is a bit longer than the other. Even though bloom is not that colorful - I still like it.

And no, it doesn't live in my orchid tank. I just put it there to take pictures because that place seems to have the best lighting. St.Swithin still occupies the large window together with Lady Isabel and PEOY.
