I really hope I don't see it return like it does on the vini in my last picture.

The poor thing lost so many leaves and it is a very slow grower too. and only one new fan so far in two years!!!

I wish paphs grew like African violet so that you can just cut a leaf and stick it in a clean sand to make a new plant. oh, well...

The second posting with spots on the underside of the leaves, I have not seen that before but the plant seems to be fine otherwise.

I have some other "issues" with mainly complex paph but I cannot capture the symptoms (subtle browning similar but different than the ones on the maudiae) in the pictures at all.

headach continues while almost all others are doing well.

I don't think it has anything to do with the worst symptoms is the one I most recently repotted.

All other paphs are sitting in not so fresh mix but vast majority of them are doing very well.

Only these three are the major headache at the moment.

I think maybe the multiflowering types are more sensitive to water (and the potting mix) since they are epiphytes?

What kind do you grow?

However, I do feel like I need to repot more often. lol
