    Default Multifloral paph needs attention

    What should I do first? This was gifted to me by a departing coworker. I don't know what variety it is, but it's been about 8 - 10 years since it last bloomed. It's since been in a basement with marginal fluoro lighting, over-watered including sitting in standing water and re-potted once. I fear I'm going to find rotted roots. It looks like it's tried repeatedly to start roots all the way up the fan, but the nubs never went anywhere.

    So, should I just separate and re-pot these two paphs? What type of support should I be providing for the tall fans?

    I'll happily take any advice. I'm a bit more familiar with the smaller paphs, and have good luck with those. This is my first multi, and I'd sure like to turn it around.
