Paph Crouching Tiger
This is a timely post - I was just about to post this photo of my blooming Paph CT.
It has 5 growths, one of them new. It was purchased in March 2016 from Austin Creek Orchids in Petaluma, CA. I repotted it when I got it, into a 5" pot from a 4" pot.
Dave Sorokowsky recommends repotting paphs yearly regardless of the condition of the media. I think that's a bit much, why disturb the plant, but he's the expert.
