New growth is always a good sign!

lots of new growth there now. Just keep an eye on the roots for more snails and you should be good to go. I applaud you efforts

Thank you Everyone for words of encouragement (the patient is still breathing and no snails in sight)!

Her name is wildcat ... that says it all. Hoping for final annihilation of the slithery beasts.

I have the 'honour' of having an orchid which came with a slug snuggling in the roots... I hope I managed to get rid of any potential baby slugs, didn't find any more than that single adult one (means nothing what with them being hermaphrodites and all) and it hadn't caused that much damage to the roots yet.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for both our plants staying snail/slug free! :crossfing

Update:

With summer come and gone, those growths pictured earlier withered away with no roots to support them, but this one is very persistant; grew out two new pbs (with more on the way), initiated some healthy root action, and maybe it will spike... in a couple of years, lol. I better get it right, 'cause my daughter is watching me like a hawk ;).

Goodness it's looking good. I bet it will bloom soon.

Looks good. Make sure the roots can breathe!
