Look At The Difference In Color

[Leisurely]

The two plants below are identical. The plant on the right is from a single bulb that broke away from the plant on the left. I noticed that the bulb had a couple of green eyes and since I like to propogate things, I potted it in a two inch pot. That was about two or two and one years ago. When you see it written that this plant quickly grows into a specimen they were not joking. The interesting thing is that the plant on the left spent outdoors from April to November. Notice how much darker it is than the one on the right that was greenhouse grown.

I will post another picture when the large plant is fully bloomed.

The plants are Bc Maikai 'Mayumi' HCC/AOS (C. bowringiana x B. Nodosa)
The third plant is Ascda. Princess Mikassa (no clonal name) that produced four spikes. Just posted it for fun.
