My best Paph. delenatii
I believe this plant came from the original collection. I purchased the original single growth plant from J & L Orchids back in the '70's. This plant is currently in a 6˝" pot (don't ask me how many growths) with 7 spikes, six of which are currently in bloom with six being bi-floral. The fragrance is awesome and is easily discernible from several feet away. My smaller division of it is blooming with three spikes.

That's fabulous. I don't seem to be able to figure out paphs, I've killed a couple of these, but yours is an inspiration!

Growing multigrowths Brachys is an accomplishment itself. Combine that with blooms, of which six bring bifloral is commendable!! You deserve a cultural award from the AOS! Hopefully you get a chance to bring to a judging center!
