Lest he think he'll never need a 6" aircone for his little baby Phrags.
:poke:

This is a Phrag. Beauport 'Rose Rocket' 4N division I got from Chuck Acker last December. We had a lot of shipping issues due to the weather, but despite a rought start, the plant is one hell of a vigorous monster! I would buy from Chuck again in a New York instant!

It may be my favorite Phrag. plant. I was able, thankfully, to keep it away from only very minor thrip damage, but lost the spike when I sprayed the plant. I am hoping it will spike again soon since there are several mature growths still to come. Leafspan is around 25".

Nice plant! Sorry you lost a spike -- that is very disheartening.

My plant is just starting to spike. When it bloomed last year, the flower reminded me of Hanne Popow on steroids.
