No Rob,..now *this* is bragging...my notoriously hard to bloom Phal. stone
pinto is about to open! Second time since last summer. On the Baldans,
leaves are all the same size, Huge! And yes, its getting leggy on the old
growth. I keep hoping it will keiki so I can cut the spikes. It doesn't
have a whole lot of flowers on the spikes, but they sure are pretty.

Now that is just bragging... *grin* Actually Baldans Kaleidoscope is
one of the most vigorous phals I know, but it sounds like you are having
better luck with it than many people. I don't grow it, but I have seen
some massively bloomed ones at shows. The only way to really know if
you are overstressing the plant is to examine the growth. Are the
newest mature leaves smaller than the older leaves? If so, the plant is
declining. Same size or slightly bigger, no problems. If the plant can
support that level of bloom, then no reason not to let it.
