Paph delenatii
Orchid Boy,
Attached are two pictures of Paph delenatii. The first shows a picture of an approximately eight growth (fan) plant with two new growths beginning to form buds and two previously bloomed growths. The growths that have previously bloomed will not bloom again and are probably the grows with the yellowing leaves. This is a natural occurance with Paphs, their older lower leaves turn brown and dry up.
The second photo shows a closer view of a spike beginning to form. New growths are capable of producing flower spikes but will not necessarily do so unless the cultural conditions are correct.
Paph delenatii can be divided by cutting the rhizome between growths and it's good practice to include two or more growths in each division. When doing this its a good time to remove any dead roots before repotting.
Hope this helps!
