Wow, it is COLD!! I'm still waiting patiently for some blooms. It is a challenge to keep the humidity up, but not risk any cold/fungus issues. GH is maintaining 55-57 during the coldest parts of the night/day.

At what temp do you guys give everything a good water? We usually don't water heavily until the temp comes back up into the 60s in the GH.

Love the blooms!! Ken, your Kelly 'Lea' is nicer than mine, but mine is just blooming first time this year. My Neostylis (Vandachostylis Lou Sneary 'Bluebird' bloomed and it is lovely. I'll get a picture. It was cooler so the colors came out bluer.
