I wonder if this will hold 3 flowers. Some of the parents are the same as Sorcerer’s Apprentice, which holds multiple flowers well.
(Reminds me of my China Dragon, which is also quite large and hopefully will bloom next month)
 
@Djthomp28 & @Linus_Cello - mist the flowers, buds and spike with Kelpak solution. It contains phlorotannins that are known to slow senescence.

I have a Phrag Lucky Girl that insists on blooming over the winter when I am forced to keep it in dry, indoor, less-than-ideal conditions, where it is a consistently single-blossom carrier, except for that tantalizing day when two are open, with each blossom lasting about 7-10 days. By misting it a couple of times a day, I was able to get it to as many as 4, with the oldest being 28 days before dropping.
