    I like that. Where do you hide that in your GH?

    Great photos Dale.
    Do you have more spikes? Does all of them have two flowers or is it different?

    No.

    "Does all of them have two flowers or is it different?"

    I don't know. This is the first time this species has bloomed for me.

    I've been coveting that one since I first saw one. Hmmmmm. Wonder why I don't just break down and buy one. It's not hot, Dale. 99 on my porch today but I don't think thermometers measure breeze, do they? And I had to go take pictures, at NOON, of my 4-year old great-grandson playing football. "Playing" is not quite right. He only likes to hike the ball and he bends over and puts his head on the ground to do that, leaving the ball on the the ground between his legs. Four-year olds can't play football! I really need to reward myself with a frostii.

    I have to explain the 99. The thermometer is up near the ceiling of the porch which is metal. But my car said it was 92 when I got back in it after the football fiasco.
