One you don't see too often, this one has been blooming about a month and a half, when I repot I think I'll put it in a basket

Very pretty, Carol. I've never seen one except in pictures. How do you grow it?

cking it over this morning I see two more spikes poppin up, nice to have flowers so long, glad I added this one to my collecton. It's taken a year but worth waiting for. It has bulbs so would be one to easily divide.
