That is a well flowered one, I love how prolific they can be. Not enough people grow them here and they always put on an impressive show when grown well.
Thanks for sharing Des!

I have had one for some years now and it flowers but not very well I find it a difficult plant to flower well the plant in the display comes from Despatch a small town to the north of Port Elizabeth. Despatch has a lower humidity and is warmer than PE and I think Dens prefer this
