How big was it when you got it? I got mine about 3 years ago as a seedling. It has grown quite a bit since then, but nowhere near the size needed for such blooming. Yours is gorgeous!

nice big paph

Ive been told multi-floral paphs of this type need at least 3 growths before they start to bloom. I have noticed all of my larger multi florals have at least 3 growths and they are blooming. Some of them are just topping the mix, but theres 3 there. A lot depends on the health of the plant and the culture its received.
