Very nice! I've recently been bitten by the porphyroglossa bug and am thinking about getting into this species. How tall is yours?

Thank you ,

Very nice - I love this species!! Mine skipped blooming last year for some reason...hoping I get blooms this year.

Steve - I also have a seedling and I don't know if it's just my plant or what but the seedling is a weak grower. My other one was bought as a division so I don't know if it's a species trait or what but you might want to look for a NBS or BS plant.

Thank's Picotee
well-i didn't know it would get that tall when i bought it -it was only about 3" high, thats what you get when not researching before buying :) But i like it anyways and have somehow found space for it-I just hope it does not get any taller.

I've got seedlings too and I hope that they'll grow up like yours, you have got a beautiful plant, not only flowers :)
