Had this for two years and this is the first blooming for me and I couldn't be any happier! the blooms are medium sized and colors are just festive as you can see. I noticed that the bulb needs to fully mature and the sheath sit there for a while before it decides to bloom. The scent is of a Plumeria and fills a small room. I have it under 4 2' HO T5's, watered when dry and fertilized every watering. Thanks for looking!!

The wire grate is actually a level of the rack that I didn't attach to accommodate taller plants. it is suppose to be a 3 level rack that is only two. I decided to hang it behind using cable ties to hang smaller plants.
