When to move paphs to s/h?

[POLKA]

Yes, I suppose you could feel that way about dividing cymbidiums.

But -- until you grow them, and then try to divide a happy, but overgrown cymbidium, you don't know much of what you speak. They can be / are buggers. And they grow roots at the drop of a hat. They did not abuse their cymbidiums, but were doing them a favor.

From experience
take care
