This summer will tell. I think i am going to put them outside a lot. Some of my orchids spend a lot of time outside, as long as it is not too hot. It really inspires them to grow. (Natural sun is worlds different from grow lights).
Norman is a scam artist. The "premium" plants are always the worst, probably the longest in his care. Caveat emptor

So how is this one doing for you, Ray? Still going strong? Have you experienced any "hiccups" over the last year with it? I have my very first Paph rothschildianum, so I'm interested in learning about any knowledge you may have gained since acquiring yours.

Thanks!

Steve

The only "hiccup" has been my wintertime culture - not enough light or humidity and inconsistent watering - but it's still around. Not much growth, but still around.
