I picked this one up when I got my After Dark. Second time it's bloomed this year and I'm very happy with it considering I bought it sight unseen. It was very happy to be outside this summer producing a pseudobulb about three times the size of the other ones before it. Will be interesting to see if it actually goes dormant this winter as it didn't last winter, just kept putting out new pseudobulbs.

Can you post a picture of your after dark in bloom? I have ordered one but they said that this was a none bloomer yet and the flower blooms were considered unknown. I can't wait until next year if there is a chance I may be able to get it to spike! My Frilly Doris is looking like it is wanting to send out a spike still in the early faze was wondering the same thing. Great growing this flower is so so pretty.
