this is a plant that is just outside, nature giving it what it needs, look at the color of the leaves haha. but pbulbs are simply massive even for cymb standards.

big flower cymb.

the plant is in full sun, took frost, cold, heat, everything you can imagine, and yet plant is with 11 spikes (some are still growing and no buds are still visible yet, (only the spikes)

some pbulbs gave 2 spikes, and i believe there is one with 3 spikes (crazy).

i am quite confident the plant will provide a good show for us.

will post pictures as soon as buds start to open.

not really, it gets fertilized when i dont forget about it, the plant is in full sun, getting a lot of water, sometimes nature provides water everyday from july to oct. (some days it gets 36 hrs of water non stop.) i just try to keep it out of the frost, (succeeded once failed the second time, but thank god no damage, it didint bother with ice either. )

it grows like weed, doubled its size in a year, i AM debating with myself if i should divide it or just use a bigger pot for her . (i will probably repot it and not divide it) curious to see if i can have one with even more spikes. haha.
