Yeah!!!!
I love the leaves on superbiens.

I would love to know how you do with Urbianum long term as I have read some stuff about it.

Phrag sorcerer's apprentice is probably my favorite phrag. It must be huge, right?

Good luck with all of them.

Where did you get them from by the way?

Yes it is very big, about 2 feet tall and over 2 feet wide and the bloom spike should get be about 5 feet tall when it blooms.

Thank you for the answers.

Well, urbanium was one of the species that are tough to grow I read.
It is apparently easy and vigorous grower for first couple or even few years, and then all of sudden, boom! out of this world.

I don't mean to scare you as there are still people who successfully grow them for a long time I think.

I am just curious to know.
Who knows, you will turn out to be one of those great growers and teach us how to!
