the sequential bloomers are such fun to see how many shoes you can get on one foot :)....

Really cool. I've got my first re-bloom from a paph budding at the momment and it's so exciting :cheer:

Looking good that you have a new growth on the first one. Paphs seem really slow to grow but any new growth is always good :biggrin:

Well done!

nice job blooming them out...good growing!!

update "Imelda" is now have 2 fans growing..she bloomed both fans last time....and slow indeed this one but the other novelty paph dropped its last bloom 3 months ago and just this month started new growth and I was ready to give it up for done...Made the mistake of yanking a yellow leaf off underneath .it was protecting a little fan so I been very careful since then not yanking dead looking leaves off anything,dead or not they still have purpose if they are strongly attached and not loose rotten and falling off :) Im learning!!
