Kathy, outside things are 3 weeks early here as well, inside there is always something in bloom. I am with you regarding Paphs and Phrags which for the most part just seem to languish on, as Ursula so aptly used as a descriptor (cabbage). My Noirmont just sits there looking green, but not growing while Jason Fischer which developed spike almost to point of blooming, spike now turning yellow.
bree, nice color in that window.
Here is one that I have had some success with, Paph moquettianum, picked up at local greenhouse just over 3 years ago in bloom.
It became a rescue as the spike quickly went into decline and removing plant from pot revealed why, as almost the entire root system had rotted off.
