Eplc. volcano trick 'Fireball' Fully Bloomed!!
 
Hello! I finally got this beauty to bloom. I bought this guy in a baggie at Home Depot. I'd been wanting an orange one and when I saw this one I bought it. It put out four growths that were twice the size of the existing growths! It grew three sheaths on my balcony but they just wouldn't come out and I could see them through the light. When I finished the shade house at my mother's place I moved it there. It grew mold on the bark to I repotted (while in sheath I know.) I thought all the sheaths dried up and died but then two emerged!! I was so happy. And sorry for the visible sheet. I didn't have time to crop the pic.
