They are slow growing when young. As the plant matures, they do tend to grow a little faster.
I have one plant, which started a basal keiki 2-3 years ago. Now both mother plant and keiki are in bloom with 2 spikes each, and the mother plant has started two more keikis.

It's beautiful with that cascading look to it. Thanks for sharing.
