Late bloomer!

[IngieBee]

Is this as unusual as I think it is? My clowesia Rebecca Northern Mikabi woke up last week or so of June, she has a 1" growth and a lot of roots. Because the roots are pretty abundant, I put her, experimentally, in a self watering pot and gave her water. I know that's risky, but it's July people!!! 85-90 degrees here already! So I'm wondering if she'll grow faster than usual with this late start? She has, according to some sorces, over 8" total in roots, which seems unusual for her leaf size. I've been asking her to please wake up and grow since March, so I've gotten a bit impatient, LOL.

I actually bought a grapefruit pink because this one refused to take off and I needed a distraction to keep me from doing something stupid, LOL. I may still have done something stupid but we'll see???!!

I should have taken pictures of the roots before I set her in! ugh
