Here's one of mine, which is blooming for the first time. It's cork-mounted, and is P. schilleriana var. purpura:

I've had it for about 2 years, since the leaf span was about 3". I'm guessing it's maybe another year or two older.

Very nice!
I just found a few places in Canada that sell them. They're $25 CAD in all the places I've checked. Anyone know if that's a decent price??

Hello Ms09
How big is the plant? It seems a reasonable price...

That sounds like a fair price for a SPIKING schilleriana. In a 2.5" pot, it's going to be a young plant, so a couple of years from growing a big, branching spike. But schilleriana is a gem among Phals. I'd personally go or it.

If it's something you really want, go for it. Remember, life is short.
