Blooming Aristaloe aristata

#1

Post by nsp88 »

I got this in January with the plan of trialing it outdoors with cover in winter. Not sure if I will do that anymore, after reading on the gallery page that it doesn't handle high heat and moisture well. Our summers might kill it. We'll see.

Anyways, noticed yesterday that it was blooming. Grew 1-2" in the past 24 hrs.

As a side topic, how large should I let the two offsets get before separating?

That sucks, sorry. How big are they?
