Thank you. Indeed, the other plant is Serendipity. It blooms 2-3 times a year for me. Here is a pic from last december. I put the two plants together to show that rex is quite tall.

2 from Peru look like divisions with no prior sheaths. It was touch and go for a year until they developed roots and grew 2 new fatter pbs each, with significantly wider and taller leaves. Newest,...

Thank you! I have a coffee table between 2 windows, so it serves as a “pedestal” for best bloomers :)
I also purchased a remake from Waldor, it is about to bloom. Very exciting.

C.Bob Betts has a wonderful plan to bloom from all 4 new growths. The bad part of the plan is that they will not bloom at the same time. The two in the back are way late, one with 3 buds and one with...

One of parents (Irene Finney) also does silly things with the “nose”. This happened this year with one flower only, other 5 were perfect. Bloomed normally 6 months ago (second picture).

This year blooms are perfect. I turn to like this cross a lot for compact growth and small upright foliage.

Yes, IMO it is a vigorous grower. It flowered for the first time in May, made 2 new large growths since and one is in sheath right now. Roots seem to like growing down and not sideways much.
