I found this growing in my Paph Michael Koopowitz x Paph rothschildianum today!
Is this another plant growing? Thanks

It is your same plant growing! That is a new growth starting. This is good. It means a couple things. 1) the old growth is mature or close to mature, and might bloom. 2) you are doing something right.

Paphs are sympodial, like cattleyas. That means they grow out, not up. New fans of leaves are the only way to get more flowers, each fan will only bloom once (out of the center).

Looks like a happy plant.

OOOPS! I typed in the wrong name earlier
This is my Paph Michael Koopowitz x Paph rothschildianum, not St Swithin

Very excited to find this! I noticed the leaf in the center a few days ago but only noticed the new growth on the side today

Thanks for the info...

Yay new growth! By the way, your hybrid has a name...

Paph. Shin-Yi's Pride (Michael Koopowitz x roth)

I saw one of these in bloom at the store, they're quite striking!
