I love Paphs. and consider myself a Paph. specialist.
However, even though I’ve grown and bloomed it in the past I cannot find a warm spot in my heart for Paph. charlesworthii.

Very nice looking plant. I’ll be interested in seeing it when it blooms. Way too tall for my growing conditions I’m afraid.

Very nice! Is it a color changer (i.e., does the color change as the flower matures?), the flower on the right seems much yellower than the one on the left. Love the yellower version.

No good will come from trying to “help” it. It will either figure out a way to develop on its own or it will snap on its own, no intervention needed. Hopefully it will do the former.

Is it a plastic pot? Your best bet would be to drill some drainage holes and than your question is moot and the plant will be much happier.

In the third photo the mix looks very dry. The roots in the lower 2/3 of the pot, at least, should be green and the potting mix moist. You aren’t using the ice cube method, are you? I’d say “Not...
