Hi all!
Long time since i've been in the Orchid forum... Gorgeous all!
I acquired my very 1st P. callosum back in March 2019. It was in bloom when I bought it.
It's a Paph. callosum 'Hilo Fire' AM/AOS x. Paph. 'Hilo Ruby' #2
Not that that matters, because it's got nothing to do with my question.
I'll preface by saying that I'm familiar with the fact that a Phal., "needs" a minimum of 3 leaves, before spiking.
Does the Paph., have a similar requirement? When purchased, it had 5 leaves, of which 4 remain. It has put on a new growth, and I'm wondering if the same will be needed to produce a spike. Actually, I'm just thrilled that it's still alive, and putting on new growth! My first one, and so far so good.
But I've not been able to find the answer to this.
