Nice! I see a little one peeking out on the left. The nicest ones you see are always in baskets like yours.

When I popped the pic open I actually said "whoa" out loud. Stunning bloom and great pic. I love the basket. I assume it's not just for the photo. Thanks for sharing.

Yes your assumption is right. That is where it is planted. This species has a stoloniferous (some calls it runners) growth habit so basket is to acommodate that. As you can see, there is already a growth coming out the side of the basket. |

Ah, ha, maybe that's why my Armeni White is throwing out runners like crazy! I also have one white complex that does that.
Anyway, can you share what the growing mix is and how you care for this one?
Flower shape is cute, and of course, that golden yellow!

The mix is fine bark, perlite and charcoal. Lowest temp is 17c at night in winter. In the summer time, much higher. Around 30-31c. I never let the mix dry out. So watering every 2 days in winter/summer and about every 3 days in spring/fall. If I keep it drier. The buds will blast and dries up. |
