Y’all I am THRILLED. I got this Den smilliae a few years ago from H&R. It keeps going though phases of doing really great (lots of new growths at once, getting nice and tall) and really terrible (rotting growths, mealy bugs). Winter lighting is an absolute struggle since it’s such a tall Den now, tallest cane is about 34” and getting taller, needs to stay warm, and really wants that super high winter light. I can’t do that since it has to stay on the shadier bench in the greenhouse over winter. I was starting to think it would never bloom because I couldn’t get the lighting right and, bam! Just noticed two spike today on the old, shorter growths. I have NO idea where these came from, lol. Just thought I would share and I’ll hopefully update in a few weeks with some bloom pics
Den smilliae surprise spikes!
