Hilarious! I hope I live long enough to see my David Sander bloom! Think I'll go dump it out of it's tiny pot to see if it's getting any new roots.

I love the David Sander!! I bought a teensy baby in 2004 and it has been steadily growing and maturing. Guess what? It bloomed!! While we were out on vacation. It showed a spent flower on Saturday.... Glare Well, at least I know it now found its voice.

Love those Kathy esp. lime light, love those colours together.
Mine is C. Guatemalensis x Lc. orange trick, or is it trick or treat 'orange'? Doesn't it look like both though.
