Please do keep me posted. I won't do any replanting until I hear more opinions...

I know I will have a long wait, but all the older ones I saw were REALLY expensive...I didn't want to plunk out all that money and then not be able to grow it...have to see how I do with this one first. At least I have good help now!! Thanks, Peggy
Prince Edward of York is a hybrid of Paph rothschildianum, which, if memory serves needs a bit more light than say, a maudiae or parviflorum type paph....

THat sheet recommends 2-3000 fc, which is roughly Cattleya light to low vanda light.
