I’ve accepted natural selection to take over while I’m on vacation, haha. And to be honest, the biggest threat to an orchid spike is me, bumping into it!

It's very fun to watch the petals elongate each day. It's now at 35 cm. I wonder how long these typically get to??

Looking fabulous Jeff! I love multifloral paphs, don't have room to grow them right now but certainly plan on it when I have more growing space.

Thanks David - the multifloral paphs are a joy to grow! It isn't too bad when they are just growing but the spikes can get quite tall / wide. It's difficult in a crowded growing area.
I hope you get to grow these one day.

The last time I had a large collection (ca. 2015/2016?) I had many paphs and phrags. Still love them but I also had more space back then!
