Gin I love it! This is at the top of my list to get. What size was yours when you purchased it? It don't know if I could wait 6 years!

I'm so pleased to see this one, Gin. I was given a lundii about six months ago and it shows no signs of spiking yet. Your's is so pretty, I can hardly wait. Mine is in a mesh basket but in a coarse, quick-draining mix. Do you keep your's moist?

I also have this species in flower now ... love this flower. I have it mounted on cork board w/no other medium!

If I get a chance in the next several days I will photograph the flower and post it hear.

The first photo is to give an idea of how it is mounted , and it's growth habit!
