How long do I wait???

It depends on the Paph. Once a year is usual. Is it sequential?

Orchids grow very slowly.

In my experience... niveum and related species are spring/early summer bloomers and will bloom once a year.

yerba buena will probably act like most bulldogs and bloom in the winter on any mature growths (so you've probably got a few months to go there.

Supersuk X Raisin pie should bloom on every new growth as they mature. You should expect about 4 mature leaves per growth before a bloom comes.

I dont have much experience with delanatii... sorry to say.
