Only one flower on this spike (the spike aborted growth after spraying the greenhouse with Physan). The other spikes have about 7-8 buds, but will still take a while. The flowers are quite big: about 4 cm's.

One of my favorites! Love the little flying "dragons"! Been waiting to find an inexpensive one to try my hand at again.

I will get more this year: I just had to post a picture of the first flower that opened. The other flower stalks will flower in another 2-3 weeks
