Paphiopedilum emersonii new leaf

Now this is a very slow growing slipper. It started a new fan about a year ago. It seemed that there was no progress at all, I thought the new growth will stay with two smallish leaves forever.



Finally I can see the third leaf peeking out now. There is also a second new fan start became visible and some little green spot that might be a third new fan, if I am really lucky:



I am not sure if this growth rate is worth the space this plant is taking...
