Peter, those new fans are what will produce more flowers for you. Leave them
alone; it sounds like your Paph is doing quite well.

Peter -
Let me add that when or if you can get several fans to mature at the
same time, you wife will love it even more. Do not attempt to divide
a Paph. Let it stay together in as large a clump as it wishes. When
they are ready to split they fall apart while you are repotting. But
sometimes they do it before they are ready, so be gentle and disturb
the roots as little as possible when it become time to repot. Try not
to divide and your plant will flourish.
It will probably not bloom until approximately this time next year.
Most Paphs are on an annual cycle.
Thankyou both for you advice, I will limit myself to watering/feeding
and removing dead leaves then and look forward lots of blooms :-)
Peter
