I think it's mostly just the genetic of this particular plant.
It was vigorous right from the very beginning.
I only wish other plants did the same but oh well
 
A little bit of both, but mostly free flowering trait.
The flower life is usually about a month of slightly longer except for this very odd case which was this past flowering when the flowers lasted for over three months! That was strange in a good way!

The flowering frequency is picking up again.
The first four flowerings happened in just 10 months, then it flowers about once a year for a couple of years but with a few spikes at a time.
Then it took a very long pause before flowering again last fall.
It's been non stop since.

I tried pollen from other Paphs on this and never worked,
I'll try and self these two and see what I get.

The plant is rather big, and that's about the only down side for me.
It is such a good grower & bloomer.
 
A few more growths with sheath coming up.

I just repotted mine, the basket had fallen apart. You need to give this plant to me. :p

How did the roots look?
and how many growths does it have now?

I think last time I saw it, about two years ago or three?
It had four or five growths, and looked really healthy with beautiful leaves.
Hasn't yet flowered?
 
Watering at the tub.
It looks like I will have 7 more flowers soon.
Three spikes with double buds and one spike with a single bud coming up nicely.

At a glance, it looks like there are only about a dozen growths here, but there are many more! I stopped counting at around 35.

The whole thing is too dense and I would like to divide to give it some space to "breathe", but I hate repotting and the thought of dividing this thing gives me headache. but better do it sooner than seeing it crash one day. lol
