Yep, I got behind and haven’t caught up yet!Gorgeous blooms and perfect presentation. Certainly worthy of that FCC! Plant looks beautifully grown, congrats on the culture! It’s staring to look like most of my catts though with that lead over the edge of the pot. I have lots of repotting to do next spring!
Yep, depressing when I think about repots like this, but I’ll get it done.Very healthy, Deb, but a tricky repotting coming up! I think it takes a larger plant with multiple growths and great roots that have been undisturbed for more than one growth cycle to get the largest flowers. The 2014 87 point CCM had 16 flowers on 6 spikes and the 2014 86 point plant had 26 flower/buds on 17 spikes, so 3 flowers is doing very well. If you can get yours repotted with limited damage to the lead growth roots and have back roots to support 3 or 4 additional growths I think you can get a size increase. It is a wonderful pink hybrid.
This is the way!forget those roots. wait until next growth starts with new roots and slip into a bigger pot if the old mix is good.
I think that might be safest way but that new growth is really going to be dangling out there!forget those roots. wait until next growth starts with new roots and slip into a bigger pot if the old mix is good.
