Paph seedling showing no growth after almost a year.

surprised that you've not been answered. I have similar problem, a small seedling, still alive and leaves look healthy, yet no sign of any growth. It's not very sunny here (in devon UK) so maybe that's the problem. Have also changed watering and feeding routines, with no change. Other paphs doing well.

Just a guess here but my experience with seedlings of any kind is that they spend a lot of time in the beginning growing roots. Once the root system is well established they will take off. Just because it looks like it's not doing anything doesn't mean it isn't. You just can't see it.

I have checked the roots and NOTHING has changed lol. No growth or loss of roots

What's your growing condition like?

Paph adductum var. anitum is considered a variety of the species adductum, with the almost solid dark brown / black dorsal. Some taxonomist conider anitum as a separate species (Paph anitum).

Multifloral paph seedlings prefers warmer temperature and higher humidity than other paphs. I would say > 70%relative humidity with no less than 18 C at night. Light-wise, they dont like strong lights when they are young, but once they take off, they like much higher light than regular paphs. Good luck!
