Default Aliceara Tahitian Dancer in bloom

Purchased at Trader Joe's about 5 years ago.

Grows outdoors year-round here in zone 9 on a sheltered porch that receives morning sun. Goes into the garage on winter nights when over-night lows near,or go below freezing.

2" blooms; 3 spikes blooming now, 3 more spikes not yet blooming. No fragrance. Potted in a 6" plastic pot (trying to bust outta there now), chc mix.

First photo shows two spikes.

What looks to be two short spikes in the full plant photo is actually one spike. Two buds, mid-way on the spike, opened much earlier than the rest, and were already withering when others started to open.

Thanks for looking
