Here is a seedling that I purchased in May of 2010 with a 8 1/2 in leaf span growing in promix. That group of plants were all growing in promix and all of them had good looking leaves. Upon repotting they had no rotted roots but a very small root system. My theory is that due to the fact they received plenty of water the roots never had to grow much is search of moisture. Upon repotting in bark they grew some nice roots. This is the first to flower of three of this cross that I own. It is growing in a 2 1/2 inch pot. The flowering growth has a leaf span of 11 inches. It also has a large second growth on it's way. The flower isn't great on this blooming but not bad. The natural spread on the flower is 8 c.m. Due to it's light color, I almost wonder if it will turn yellow in time, but I would think not due to it's parents.
