I have a wonderful Customer (friend) for years, and today she had this Alcra. pacific nova 'Butter Buds' waiting for me when I came to do some work for her.

Congrats, Dave

I have this same plant for over a year, still waiting. It wasn't doing too good for the longest time and just recently started showing some promise

Yours looks great!

Thats a great plant Dave. What a nice tip!
They like it bright and warm. Mine blooms faithfully every year.

Give it more light Sue and a good bit of food & water and it should bloom 2 spikes on every growth. (I'm usually happy with 1 spike)

That's what I've been doing, Tess
Thankfully, it's looking better.
I think it was just being tempermental

I am glad it's looking better. If it's getting new growths, it should bloom on them.
