My "monster" Neofinetia falcata blooming
I've had this one a couple of years. Ten fans, tho a couple are smaller; has started a couple of new fans this year. This is potted in small bark mix; 3" plastic pot, at least until I repot it
Eight spikes this year; 39 blooms I think. One spike is hiding on the opposite side. Beautiful Neo fragrance, of course.
(Last pic is size comparison with another Neo, and also shows the one spike hiding on that side- the smaller is in a 2" pot)
Thanks for looking

Good Lord Woman!
How did you manage that?
We never managed to keep one alive here much less grow!
What are your conditions? What is the care you give that monster!!!!
I am now jealous!
