I didn't get around to repotting this back in early Spring when it was in bloom...so it threw 2 climbing out of the pot growths , that spiked. I took plastic wrap and sphagnum moss and wrapped the bottoms of the growths hoping when it's through blooming I could remove those growths with roots.
It worked ! Both are putting down roots ! They will be ready for their own pots after blooming. So happy it worked ! I've had pretty good success doing this with both paphs and phrags. Sometimes it takes longer than these did. Just have to have patience. As long as the plant is green there is hope !

Good job. Air layering is a great way to get identical plants from the
parent plant. I've done it many times on different kinds of plants and
it works well most of the time. It also keeps those looooong stolons
in check.
