After many years of trying I finally got it to bloom and this is what I got, two dents in the pouch and a wonky staminode. I actually got two sheaths two years ago but one blasted immediately and the other started to develop buds before it too blasted. NS is 6" and the color is pretty good, hopefully it will straighten itself out if I can coax it into blooming again. One unusual thing I did notice both times that it tried to bloom is that the growth that is about to bloom throws the last leaf with heavy anthocyanin pigmentation on the underside before the sheath forms. None of the other growths show this characteristic.
