It's a real beauty and so many flowers on the original. It obviously loves where it is.

Good growing and nice photo!
I love these too. Once you get the mature growth just does not stop flowering.

cool and bright with plenty of fresh air. I give the paphs the regular weekly weakly feeding of peters cal/mag and flush the media out on the 4th week, media is small fir bark,charcoal and some 1/2" or larger granite chunks.
thanks you
yup the spike gets longer and longer with each bloom and you need to take control of it often

Gorgeous! I really love this orchid.
Just found my pinnochio plant dead at the weekend. It had had 12 flowers over about a year, I first noticed the latest bud was blasting, then noticed that both the spiking fan, and the newer growing fan had rotted off at the base
This is very much top of my wishlist because I just have to replace it!
