Cymbs - 15 spikes in 4 plants
I haven't noticed before but to day when I was checking my cymbs I realised there are a lot of spikes growing in four of my cymbs. Count them and, if I haven't missed any, there are 15.
No photos yet but I will update this thread as they start to bloom. One more week and I think I'll have some already.

Nice, that sounds very exciting. How far along are they?

Three of them (from two plants) will probably bloom in one to two weeks. One of these two is a plant that was offered a year ago so I don't know how the flowers are. All the other will need maybe a month or two to bloom.

Update... the first spike has bloomed already.
It's a division I got as an offer last Spring and it's the first time it blooms under my care. The division has 5 pbulbs so that's why it's blooming already.
It still has a second spike almost blooming.

Update...I was watering my cymbs and noticed a scent like roses. I couldn't believe but this yellow cymb is fragrant. It's noticeable when I'm near the plant but smelling on top of the flowers it is intense, like roses.
I never had a fragrant cymb and didn't knew they exist.
