How many new growths is it normal...
I purchased a Laelia superbiens var. alba 'Don Hubert's Cross' from SBOE and divided the plant in three:
The first division has the spike (which keeps growing and growing). This division has two pseudobulbs and I noticed today it is putting out a new growth.
The second division had two old leafless pseudobulbs. I didn't think this one was going to survive. To my surprise, the thing put out a new growth almost immediately. The new growth put out roots (which already worked themselves into the pot and it's developing a healthy root system). The new growth is growing rapidly.
The third division, which I thought was the healthiest, didn't do much of anything. It consists of 2 fully formed pseudobulbs with each pb having two leaves. It didn't do much until recently, when I noticed that one of the pbs has three new growths starting, and the other one has one.
That's my question--how many growths per pseudobulb is normal?
