Default Cym. Sarah Jean

Well it had a dry rest more or less. My experience is that they can be
very hard to get growing after a too severe rest, so I keep them going a
little bit. Normally it produces lots of inflorescenses, but then the
buds dry out and fall off before they all open. This year it had only
one spike with one flower open. This is a picture of last years
flowering. Nothing spectacular, but better than one single flower!

Niek, did you give the aggregatum (now Lindleyii, by the way, though I have
a problem making those changes) a dry rest?

Wendy, I cannot 'beat' you with the Dend. aggregatum. Mine gave only one
flower (yes that is one single FLOWER) this year. I gave him the message
that he will be sold the next auction of our society ;-)

But..., my Cymbidium Sarah Jean is very floriferous! I bought it last
year with two spikes, now it has grown eight. Top that bid!

Greets, Niek
