Aren't we getting into the blooming season on these guys? We could very well have new spikes in a week or so.

Please clarify. Mine did not have any when it arrived but with the humidity and summer hitting this week, new growth is everywhere!
:scratchhead:
Well I think the best way to go about this to take a picture of your plant when it arrives showing it does not have a spike. So if it develops a spike after that your in the running. Remember its the first and second person who gets a flower. Just because you get a spike doesn't necessarily mean you will get a flower.;) At least thats the way it is for me. Good Luck

Did you order from Oak Hill? If so, you should have gotten it by now and I would call them first thing tomorrow.

of course maybe I am pronouncing it incorrectly - and taking some liberties with pronunciation to come up with a name ;)

I agree with Dave...please give Oak Hill a call tomorrow to inform them of the problem. I spoke to Liese on Saturday and she really wants to know if there are ever any problems so they can be resolved quickly :Tup:

Their phone number is in the upper right corner of the page:
Oak Hill Gardens

Nice to see all these neat babies arriving. I have to wait until May 17th when Paramount is bringing mine to the Vancouver show. It will be mounted so I'll try that for a while and maybe transfer to a pot later.

:)
