All of my Floyd Cove's started sending up scapes a couple of weeks after I received them, and I've potted up all of them. They've been in a lot of shade since I planted them, and of course it's cooler in the shade. SPINEFELD has one opening today, but it's doing the same thing and I don't think it will be open until much later today, or even tomorrow. I think maybe I'll move all of the ones with scapes to another table that gets much more sunlight and see if that makes a difference.

The same thing happened a couple of days ago with my ART GALLERY SWEET TOOTH -- absolutely no resemblance to the blooms in their pictures on their website. And it was so bad that I didn't even take a picture -- no teeth, narrow dark petals and sepals, and the bloom never really opened all the way. Somehow I really can't believe that two different hybridizers sent the wrong plants of new introductions to me. And they both opened the same day, too, so I know I need to wait to see what happens with future blooms after the weather stabilizes before rushing to judgment.
