Mine is in a clay pot, with a mix of bark and osmunda. Last year it gave me a couple of flowers, then seemed to tire out, though it's never lost leaves. This year's spike has perhaps 5 buds on it, which are getting fat and lovely by the day. It's a wonderful little bloomer when it gets on a roll.

UPDATE - phal Lobbi
Well,
the third bud flowered & the flower fell off last weekend... BUT it has put out a new leaf & & & &...
A 2nd spike is forming !!!!
I believe this one really loves me! 
Tindo I see what you mean about the flowering... do the parishii & gibbiosa do the same?
Here's a couple of pics..
Ist one is the 3rd & last flower on the spike, 2nd is how it is today, with the drying spike, the new one and the leaf which has continued to grow..
