thanks Ron

I have an easier time taking nice photos of this one, than some of my others - I guess the color contrast on the blooms helps.
lol - thanks Thumper

I'd love to see this one without the spikes staked - I bet it would look awesome, but it grows on a windowsill, and long, unstaked spikes don't work. The first time this one rebloomed, I didn't stake the spike - it looked good, but that was only one spike with 8 blooms, and was still somewhat difficult to manage ...
