It's one of my favorite sanderianum hybrids. You should post some pics for us to enjoy. Is yours in bloom now?

New growths on paphs are not called keikis. They are just simply new growths. Nice robust plant though!

In the photos I see a Shadow in the middle looks like that growth is mature with 4 leaves. I think you have a spike on the way. Also the new growth is another sign you might have a spike since I have noticed on mine they send out new growth as they start to spike. So Give it a few months and you might have a spike.

Who says it is not blooming size?

You know, seeing a picture of this exact hybrid on the Smithsonian's website(back in 2015) is what got me into orchids in the first place

Mine were acting weird for awhile too
The pictures kept posting upside down
So, you're not the only one with picture problems
