I am disappointed by this bloom, lost one spike out of two, and half of the buds on the spike left. I suspect it is the heat increase plus lower humidity in my apartment since last month.
This is the 'Grapefruit Pink' clone from SVO

A great hybrid! Yours looks great, despite the flower losses.

I think your assumption is right, kallima. The strong bulb looks a bit shriveled. Few flowers, but the plant is healthy. Comes next year , comes next chance. Glad you picked one.

This plant is a little bit too small still to get sprays of flowers. Eventually it will form a clump and will have lots of flowers.
