Default Plectrophora alata

first flower since I got it in october (from Ecuagenera)
I like it a lot !!! And it looks like another bud is coming out from the same psb

It is a few inches under T5s, intermediate temperatures and I water every day. I potted it in 1/2 clay pellets at the bottom, 1/2 sphagnum moss on top. and I keep the pot in a saucer with a bit of water (I am planning to move to full S/H when it will start new roots)

Cool picture or a nice flower. I will move the thread. Thanks for sharing it with us Pluero lovers first though.
