Nice AB, Arilbred. More photos please.

Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?

You have great luck with your arils! They just don't do well for me. Sure are pretty.

Jealousy here! These are all gorgeous! I'm in 7A and haven't ever had a bloom, but I have a couple of stalks threatening to bloom. I had one AB I bought last year, but it didn't make it. My fault, though....I heard they needed to be drier than others, but I let it get too dry.

Carry on with gorgeous 7A blooms--I hope I can follow you with ordinary TBs soon!

I have two more AB's that have a bloom stalk. Striped Butterfly, which I don't think is considered and AB because it does not exhibit enough AB traits and Chartreuse Butterfly. I got the latter from a rescue sale and it has not bloomed so far. I hope it fits the description as I can find no photo of it anywhere.
