Wabbit's Neostylis Lou Sneary in bloom

[WhiteRabbit]

Actually, one of two I have (the other has three nice spikes coming along!) - they were one plant at one time ...

This one also has another small spike coming along

Grown in a 3" clay pot, chc mix, west facing window that gets some direct sun mid-afternoon.

Thanks for looking

Awesome!! Don't ya love Lou? Easy grower, blooms multiple times a year and smells fantastic...what's not to love, right?

Mine is in spike too and I like this one so much that I just bought a pink one and a green cousin.

Good growing and thanks for sharing.

It's beautiful! I can't wait to see pictures of your other plant when it blooms.

I always smile when I see people's post about how easy this plant is to bloom. I have had mine for two years and I bought it in flower. I have not seen spikes since I bought it! Lol! I have moved it to a location with higher light and that still didn't do the trick. I always have trouble blooming "the easy" ones.

They're beauties. Can't wait for mine to spike.

Congratulations!
Okay, I confess, I nearly gave mine away but, in the end, I decided to keep it. It has bloomed every year but has not been fragrant. Just after I decided to keep it, it started a spike and, this year, it is fragrant. I guess it has just been too cold, usually, for the perfume.

There beautiful. I'm not going to look at this variety any more, I don't need any more kinds to want.

Thanks, Katrina!

I tried hard to kill mine the first year or so ... (too much water), it was a shadow of its former self, but refused to die, and recovered quickly after I set my culture right! Tough little plant!

I can relate to having trouble with the so-called easy ones I did have trouble growing this initially (over-watered), but it clung tenaciously to life, and responded quickly to better culture!

I don't know how long yours has been in higher light, but suspect if it hasn't been too long yet, it will reward you within a year

Yours is wonderful! Mine has never had a strong fragrance, tho it is very nice.

Honestly - they don't take too much space!
