Thanks Beth, when the next bud opens, I want to take weekly pics of it, as the colours seem to change as the bloom ages. This bud is still going!

I haven't had much luck getting paph's to re-bloom....seems I have better luck with Phal's (of course). I have 2 paph's that are called "rasin pie"...not sure if I'm not keeping it wet enough or the wrong lighting. Got any tips?

Hi Beth, I think I have just been lucky and bought a good plant and that we have a good climate for it. I am fairly new to paph's. It is summer here and quite hot, water it once a week, letting the water run through to which I add a weak strength of orchid food (for flowering). I keep it indoors till the present flower starts going off and then move it into the shade house so that the next bud can develop and on the second day of it being open move it back into the lounge.
