How to promote new growth on Paphiopedilum orchids too maximise yearly flowering potential!

Yes! It's growth season for many orchid types and it's really important to promote as much healthy vegetative growth as possible to maximise your chances for great flowers next season! Let's take a look at Paphiopedilums because they are in full growth mode right now!
The orchids I mention in this video that I have successfully flowered are:
Paphiopedilum niveum
Paphiopedilum Duo de Citron
Paphiopedilum (Ruby Leopard x Black Jazz) x Firefighter
You can watch my Paphiopedilum care video here:

I am so pleased I found your channel last night although I did get a late night watching your videos. I too am a beginner orchid lover in Australia, my father left me his orchid collection and I really wish I had shared his passion and knowledge but I didn’t so now I’ve been watching UA-cam trying to learn their care and I have learned a lot but they are all in Europe or USA and mostly indoor growers and your videos are exactly what I have been looking for. I just wanted to say thank you for making it all sound enjoy and not so daunting.

Oh thank you Mari-anne! And what a lovely challenge to learn how to make your father's orchids thrive - which I'm sure you will!

The yellow paphiopedilum is stunning.

Many thanks for finding me! And it is isn't it!

Although I agree with some of what you said about easy, fairly quick growth-- that is "some" paphiopedilums. Phaphs like Rothschildiamum are glacial in their growth, high light, and high water. So they are all different.

Oh yes....I made this video SOME years ago...some learnings since!

Can I keep my slipper orchids in the greenhouse over the winter, Its heated, and I live in Vancouver Canada.

[@helloplantlovers]

Hi there - thanks for watching! Sure - lots of people only grow them in greenhouses - depending on the species or variety - most don't like to get too hot though or too much bright light. Good luck!
