Three Tolumnias spiking
Default Three Tolumnias spiking

Pink N Pretty (or Pretty N Pink, I never seem to get the order right, lol )
which recently finished flowering with 13 flowers and some extra off the branching spikes is growing a small spike on one of the two small growths.

Next two photos show Genting Orange, which I dropped once last year, the whole thing fell off the clay pot and I just pushed it back in in a very lazy manner as you can tell by the way the roots are all over in the air, is finally spiking on one the small growths. This is one of the many that suffered underwatering last season skipping flowering in the fall.
I'm definitely repotting this after flowering is over.

The last one is Popoki Mitzi. This one also suffered some severe dryness. I thought about dumping it but just repotted and kept it. very diligent watering brought it back to life and now it is growing a promising thick spike in over a year!

Th first two are hanging by the south facing window and the last one is sitting in a 3in plastic pot right up against the same window.

All get misted multiple times daily if possible. They are soaked for 10 min to three hours (communal bath, so they share whatever one of them has lol) about twice a week depending on how active they are and how hot it is.

I normally do not leave them in water for three hours but sometimes I forget about them in the bath and do other things. then I step inside the bathroom and go, "oh, my! I did it again!"
