Default My kingianum's in bloom

I got a small 4" pot of this kingianum from a coworker about 15 years ago. After finally figuring out how to grow it here in California about 10 years ago (outdoors, full sun, warm summers and cool winters), it has grown and grown and is at its largest now, and two other offshoots that started as keikis maybe 4-7 years ago are also growing large. Massive fragrance - I've taken a small one into the office and people sitting five offices away across the office can smell it. First pictures were taken about 2 weeks ago, the latter ones this past weekend. My cats are next to it - gives you an idea of the size.

Amazing kingies very nice indeed. I have a few myself, but they suffer from tip burns. Do you fertilize a lot or very little?
