Wow! Magnificent plant. How tall is the inflorescence? A very impressive plant. I have to get one!

How long has this plant been out of the flask? Is this cross more vigourous than either parent?

Please stop posting pictures of your plants. If I get any more sick with envy I might die.

Tyrone to answer your questions:

How tall is the inflorescence? A very impressive plant. I have to get one!
The inflorescence is 120 cm tall!
How long has this plant been out of the flask? Is this cross more vigourous than either parent?
The plant has been out of flask for probably about 12 to 15 years.
Yes, it is very vigorous. I have used it as a parent, and the offspring was also way more vigorous than a straight roth cross
