Hi Joe, You must be doing something right for your Paph to bloom two years in a row. It still has time to make a new growth. For excellent detailed information on Paphs, the Antec Labs site is the best I know--kindly recommended, here, by GW's original "Paphhead," Orrin. I've added the link below. You can access more of Antec's Paph information by using the Home link at the bottom of this linked page. Sweetcicely Here is a link that might be useful: Your First Paph

I just wanted to update the status of my ZZ plant. We get so used to the new growth that we tend to forget exactly how much our plants have grown. I checked out my previous photos as I scrolled down to the bottom of this post and I couldn't believe the difference between now and then. I told you that I counted at least twenty new leaves growing on it; which started back around the Fourth of July. Well, it hasn't stopped growing since then, and it's been three months now. All I did for this plant is repot it back during spring, and set it out next to my driveway, where it got very bright, indirect sunlight all day long. I planned on repotting it into a pot one size bigger, but there were so many roots, that I decided to go up to two sizes instead. And I'm glad I did. This plant has exploded with so much new growth this year alone. I can still pick it up with relative ease, but now it's gotten so much heavier. I may have to repot it again next year. Not that I'm complaining, lol. For a ZZ plant, it has most definitely taken me by surprise. In this first photo, you can kind of see the darker older growth, the medium first new growth, as well as the pale newest growth. As you can see, it's been quite busy this summer. I plan on moving it back outside into the spot I had it in, so that it can soak up more of that remaining summer sunlight, :)

Wow those ZZ RAVENS are gorgeous! I personally would not have divided the plant as I think one big plant surely makes a statement. I have 2 plants that are about 2 ft tall. I have them in potting soil with pumice added. They are in azalea clay pots so their roots have room to spread. Right now it’s winter here and I water them about once a month. I find them quite easy to grow and yours should be fine. Post pictures of the repotted ravens when you get a chance!

They have some at my Wal-Mart for only $15-ish dollars. The potato-like tuberous rhizome has rotted away. That one leaf is a goner, but the other two still look okay. I wouldn't advise cutting it, but I would pull away any rotted material, take it to a sink and gently scrub the affected area with a small brush under some running room-temperature water, dust the affected area with some cinnamon (or even some rooting hormone), and let the plant air dry for a few days. The use of a small brush will remove any and all rotted plant material without damaging the healthy portions of the plant. After the affected area has calloused over, only then would I repot the plant with some fresh fast-draining soil. For mine, I like to mix in 50% Miracle Gro orchid bark with a cacti & succulent soil. This makes the whole mix a bit chunkier, and the orchid bark will readily absorb any excess water, while also helping to keep the soil mix well aerated, as well as prevent you from packing the soil mix down too tightly. As for watering, I would definitely scale back on however much you were watering it. These plants are remarkably adept at going without water for a short period of time; especially around this time of year. I have a huge regular ZZ plant that has sat in my bedroom all winter long, and hasn't been watered since I brought it back inside last October. I plan on moving it back outside tonight or tomorrow and soaking the whole pot for an hour or so to rehydrate all of the soil. Smaller plants can't go for that long, but I only brought it up just to make my point.
