Looking good.

 

[jblanford]

I would say it's looking real good, not much longer. Jim.

this is sure going to be a pretty coloratum!

 

[biothanasis]

Rainbow-ish colours...are waiting to be revealed...

 

[toddybear]

I can see the potential coming!

 

[SlipperKing]

Coming along nicely. Stems can get kinked up a lot when it takes so long to develop (mainly with natural lighting)

Heh heh, I was hoping no one would notice. It's really kinked badly. I was warned about not moving them around too much when the spike is developing, but I've learned the hard way for sure.

Well, it would be nice if it opened up more, but it's kind of stalled in this hooded position for days...

 

[goldenrose]

Does Easter come early this year? The colors are well suited for the holiday!

 

[Elena]

The colours are gorgeous, Joanne. Hopefully it'll still open more!

 

[SlipperFan]

One of my Angela flowers opened hooded like that this time. I think it's there for the duration, but maybe not next time.
