Good job getting it to spike after all that. Waiting six years for a flower is a feat in my book.  I think it can be rather encouraging for us newer growers to witness such patience even as it involves some errors on the growers part.
Thanks for sharing!! My vote is for keeping it too. |
Thank you!
Yeah, I realized that the flower is bigger than the pot!
Roots have been doing well the last couple of years, so it may go into a bigger pot in the spring.
I have been known to wait a few years to get blooms - tho this one has been the longest wait, yet - if the plant is otherwise looking good; and if I have never seen the blooms before, I do feel that I want to see them - they could possibly be fabulous!
Right now, I have a first ever spike on a Laelia I've had a few years ... I'm excited to see the blooms! I hope nothing happens to the buds ...
