Is that jackii going to open or ..?

[JeanLux]

I got this plant one year ago from Popow. Since sept. it is working on this spike ( so somewhat quicker then malipo):

Hello Jean,

photo of the whole plant please .

 

[JeanLux]

Just have this pic available from last year!

Jean

 

[Hakone]

Yes, is jackii

 

[NYEric]

Good luck.

 

[Rick]

Double bloom!

I hope it makes it all the way too Jean:wink:

I have a malipoensis in about the same state, but I don't want to photograph and jinx it!

Pry it open with your fingers. I'm joking Patience!

 

[GuRu]

Pry it open with your fingers......

Don't give such advise ! :rollhappy: There might be people who would do that - but Jean - who is experienced enough !

It can be hard to wait but well worth it. I have a malipoense that has been in spike around the same time (same as Rick). I look forward to seeing pictures.

I thought you were showing me the head of a green dinosaur at first Jean!
I agree with Hakone, the plant looks like a jackii

 

[biothanasis]

It seems it will open, but when it is ready.... Patience, patience, patience!!

 

[lipelgas]

It will open. One day.

 

[Dido]

3 months from bud I read ( for malipo) don't move or change environment!

 

[JeanLux]

Here it is, the first flower open(ing); compared to a malipo, it def. looks a bit more casual as far as shape is concerned ! Jean

 

[Ozpaph]

nice, it should open more with some time

 

[Rick]

Great flower Jean!:clap:

My malipoense blasted

 

[NYEric]

Nice, is it fragrant?

 

[cnycharles]

congrats. ... I was going to say I thought it would be another month before it would open, so maybe it is trying to open before the calendar runs out
