    Default Paph. armeniacum

    I got this sweet little division from Jason!
    It was very fragile, but I got a pic of the roots. Enjoy!

    I forgot to mention that the stolon between the two growths appears to have senesced (I found out while unpotting it). So I guess it's really two plants, but they wouldn't mind sharing a pot until they get full-grown. I have no doubt that you'll bloom this before I bloom mine!

    That's what I thought - It did seem very fragile. Hope they like each others company!

    senesced: disintegrated, often due to old age. it's a term that is used frequently for cells in culture...or anything that basically goes *poof*. That armeniacum was a ball of growths that I kept repotting from time to time, but when a bunch of stolons senesced, I just chopped it up into individual pots.
