these are spectacular. Has 2 buds, maybe a 3rd.
I had mine outdoors until it spiked and then brought it back indoors into a south-facing window. Another, bigger plant, in exactly the same cultural conditions, has no signs of a spike. I just repotted it to give it an oomph.

I have a Clinton Booth (St. Swithin X primulinum) which I was hoping would satisfy my desire for a St. Swithin, but you picture just proves me wrong. It is a lovely plant, thanks for posting.

There seems to be 2 or more types. Mine has thick glossy leaves that are large. I have seen others with smaller, more strap-like leaves. Blooms are smaller too. I prefer my type😃
