Catt blooming piccys? :)

[Kimbubbley]

Hi, sorry i haven't got any Catt bloom pics to show (yet!) ... was wondering if anyone had pics of the PB as it matures to flower?... or the flower sheath as it sprouts? Just wondering what i should be looking for?

Mine is at the point where the PB sheath on the newest growth is drying and becoming papery... the PB seems to be fattening slowly

There is also a new shoot from the bottom of this PB... does this grow to to form more of the rhyzome before becoming the next new PB and leaf?

Is the plant capable of growing AND blooming... or do they focus their energy on maturing and the current PB then becomes a back bulb?

Lots of questions i know! daftest question of all probably...

How do i decipher Sophronitis Purpurata 'Treasure of Carpinteria'' AM/AOS x var. werkhauseri ?? The least i can do is actually learn exactely what it is im looking at

Thanks
