Belligerent Paphs Female
Default

I am only on my very first paph, a bulldog wich I bought with 3 mature growths, near blooming size, which I got last summer, and I had absolutely no cooperation from it last year (I live in a hot dry environment). I started to water it more, raised the light level some, and this winter, in January, I got a 1.5 inch new growth, and what looks like 2 more new growths which are just little nubs but which I can see leaves on.
So by this time next year, I will have a 6 "hand" paph, and I'm betting it will start to bloom by then. So this to me, means the "coolness" is very important to the paph. I wonder if there is a cool pot out there for paphs?
