I got this last May from my friend in Denver. I wish I would have grabbed another one as I think he gave them away shortly after I left. Cym lady helped me re-pot it but it had a bad summer getting blown off the back porch even though I would tuck it back in a corner. I finally found a heavy pot to put it inside of and I just put it outside this last week. It has at least 6 new growths and I am so stoked I can't even tell you. Thanks again Cym lady for your help. Two of the growths are bigger as they started sooner and I had it in a different place behind a giant plant so I kept forgetting to water it in time. I finally got better and then more new growths started. The 2 larger ones first.

They look really healthy. I've noticed mine grow better (and bigger) in clay pots.

Lookin' good! I've never had much success with cyms, but I think this is a good year for them; mine have done well and 2 of my 3 bloomed. Very satisfying!

Really, well I wonder if that's because you live where there is much more humidity? Most all the stuff I've read say's people usually use plastic.

Good for you, I would be so happy to get 2 out of 3. I am so hoping to get blooms next year.

Well, it depends on the season. In winter, 80 to 100%.
In summer, 15 to 25%.

Your summers are more of what ours are year round. Of course mine has to be in the house in the winter and I do run humidifiers. The only time we have more is spring.

If your % is so low year round plastic pots are needed.
