How many years from seeding to spike? I've had one for about 15 years, slowly getting there, but still no cigar
. It is a survivor at least.
The current plant does have a new growth and spiking. Another plant that bloomed last year i don't think had a new growth at the time of blooming but it must of been breaking an eye at the same time. The newest blooming size growth is almost as big as the old one and has a start of its own.How many years from seeding to spike?

Thank you, Leslie for taking the pictures. I will bring #2 to the June meeting.
Bark mix (orchiata bark, perlite, and charcaol). The 2 large plants I received from Paph Paradise, one is potted in medium bark mix, the other one is potted in small mix. Both work, just to make sure that you use the smallest pot possible, and also only water it when it is bone dry.
For paph parishii (difficult to grow). I learned to buy large seedlings. I bought 2 large seedlings and 1 medium seedling from Paph Paradise 2 years ago. It took 2 seasons for the 2 large plants to bloom. Even for large plant with very good roots, it is slow. The medium seedling one, very slow growing, grew 2/3 of new leaf last year on the main growth. The baby was tiny when I received 2 years ago, in 2 years, the baby grow to about 2-3 inches tall. So I would recommend to buy larger plants.How many years from seeding to spike? I've had one for about 15 years, slowly getting there, but still no cigar
Does it have a new growth? The 2 blooming plants each has a baby. One baby, the longest leaf is 6 inches, the other baby, the longest leaf is 8 inches.How many years from seeding to spike? I've had one for about 15 years, slowly getting there, but still no cigar
