Hi all,
Craig: it came from Germany...! Finally I have found some sellers here in Europe that have low prices and ship items at low cost... !! Most of them are from auctions on ebay...

I have notices that the sheath behind the flower starts to become brown like dying not infected... Does this mean anything? The flowewr is hard and fresh though... No bad things or signs on the stem of the flower...!!!!

Thank you all...

I've seen that before with lack of water, but maybe that is typical of charlesworthii. I don't have one, but am sure leaning toward getting myself one.

Very nice.
