This beast is 13.5cm wide! I got a division this summer, so I wasn't expecting blooms for a cycle or two. Its a vigorous plant!

Thanks! I’m pretty happy with this one. I’m excited to have 6 blooms on a spike... hopefully soon.

YUM! Placing your hand for scale is very helpful and it's quite a handful. Magnificent.
