It's Paph. Scott Ware . It's quite big , compare to the rest of my paph but only 2 growths.. I got it from Krull Smith . I'll be sure to post a pic when it blooms Thanks for your help as usual, Kevin.
Prisana,

I know many people who take their new plants home and immediately repot them regardless of whether they need it or not. They do this so the plant is in a mix they know and they know how fast it will dry out, etc., etc. There's a certain wisdom to this and is a perfectly sensible habit to get yourself into.

Not being able to see and feel what it's in I can't say if it's dirt or not.

Scott Ware is a nice Paph to have and Krull-Smith, in my opinion, is one of the 4-5 best places in the world to buy Paphs. The Paph I got awarded back in February and which is my current avatar, came form Krull-Smith. I can't wait to see your pics!
