[RJSquirrel]

I got this catt with a spike on it about a month ago from Hauserman's..

Another small bloom turned brown and fell off darn it but I never had a catt bloom for me personally.You know I'm watching this one and its taking forever to open up!! Catt Koolau Sunset..Ill keep taking pictures of it everyday and then make a time lapse of it. Its so neat to see them open up. I thought I haven't really done anything.Then I think again yes you have you are keeping them alive !!


I did make the little cedar box

nice box! I have a Catt that had buds for a long time and just started blooming. If the blooms are gonna be big the buds need time to get so large Keep us updated!

[RJSquirrel]

I will keep you updated

the box has it all. AIr flow, drainage, and Bamboo skewers all around it to tell you when its dry the skewers hold the bark in too.The box works over a gravel tray for humidity or just to plop on the counter for veiwing I'm having too much fun I didn't plan on

Yay! that's what it should be all about! Well - you're just gonna have to consider making boxes for all of us

I love the cedar boxes! You've got to post instructions or plans or both! I'd love to gin up a couple of those beauties.

and you must also know its hard to find nice little rustic cedar "boxes" or anything ready to go..

Cedar can go anywhere and it smells good too.

I am an engineer and true to my trade theres lots of small parts

(to add you will also need some band aids, antiseptic, and Advil for the pain!! )

Vanda baskets at www.repotme.com are very similar and easier

about a month watching it and after a week of enjoying the catt bloom...its almost gone....in different aspects of lighting the bloom has an iridescence to it...glows, you know..
