Female
Default Giganteum - She did it - 5 blooms

This is the first blooming for this (phrag. Grande 4N X phrag. caudatum var. sanderae). I kept taking pictures, 2 blooms, 3 blooms, 4 blooms. I can't believe that they all hung on until the last one opened.

I bought this in a 3" pot in the fall of 2005. She is growing in S/H under high light. There are no more buds.

WOW!! Grandma, that is amazing!!

I have a giganteum (Phrag. caudatum var. warscewiczianum x Phrag. Grande) that I can only hope someday will be as awesome as yours.

You must be giving her exactly what she wants.
Wonderful growing!!
