Someone on facebook commented to me about how these are climbers. These pictures show just how much they climb, and also the way the nursery I bought it from told me to deal with the climbing nature.
The higher pot is slit down to the base, then placed around the base of the higher growth with the stake and the rhizome going through the hole in the bottom of the pot.
The bud which was on this has now opened and replaced the first flower which dropped before Christmas, another bud is forming  |

I think I read something somewhere about besseae having 2 basic types based on where they're from one of them climbs, and one of the clumps (i.e., climbers in Ecuador, clumpers in Colombia), or did I just dream that?
