I just lost one of mine too. There are several reasons that you don't
see this one very often, and one of them is that it is just plain harder
to grow. I think step one is to get a good clone, some grow better than
others. I've had more success growing them dry and cool (think
parvisepalum) than the other way. A very good pleurothallid (and
dendrobium) grower that I know grows Paph. parishii most excellently.
Her environment is quite cool, with a whole lot of humidity (far more
than I).

Well, dry I can do, but cool and humid is tough in Austin.
Interestingly, http://paphs.net/media/Paphs/parishii.htm says if is
"generally easy to grow in culture."

Thanks for the reply,
