new sheath discoverd today

[johnblagg]

And Taaa Daaaa today I find another sheath forming but dont hold a lot of hope for this one....but maybe.

Blc Hawaii stars 'Paradise' has a sheath but also some damage to the growth it is on ....wet dry hot cool whatever the reason It had some black spots at the base of the leaf.I think partly due to the covering around the pb holding water there so I removed it gently ....and actually that was what I was doing and discovered the sheath inside and kind of folded and wrinkled due to the old covering impeading it...still a happy dance just because it tried so soon after it came to be in my care.

Bloom or not the effort to bloom with the crappy season outside with nothing more than a little shade cloth is a good reason to be happy.Now if I can just get good enough to prevent the black spots that I have had on a couple ....
