I'm keeping my paph posts separate since I'm including many photos for both paphs
My Paph HCM seems to be the happiest of my two paphs. His leaves have also grown in the month that I got him arrived on 12/24/14 He was potted in Sphagnum moss covered by bark on top, I almost rotted him! I thought he was in just bark. his roots are too big to fit into a 3" pot, so I put him in a DIY 3.5" pot. The first time I potted him, I had only 4" pots, but then I moved him to 3.5". My concerns with him: I know paphs don't always have many roots; that kind of makes me nervous. Also, it doesn't seem like the roots are secure to the base of the plant. Is this normal for paphs? The roots move freely, almost like they could fall off.
I Have him in leca, sphag, and perlite. Maybe some bark? This one seems to like having constant moisture.
I'll try to add the photos from oldest first, to newest last. Sorry for so many pics, I just love this paph
It might just be me, but the leaf on the bottom left looks like it's turning yellow
