Well, it may adapt, you never can tell. It certainly is robust, and as Jeff
Goldblum says in 'Jurassic Park' "Life will find a way." Or as they say in
sports - Its ain't over till its over.

I'll take a picture of it tomorrow and post on abpo. 28 spikes is a very
conservative estimate - that's just what I cut off. There are many more.
Of course, these are short spikes with many small flowers, and when it's
in
full bloom it looks like one big orange sun. I saw the plant last year at
its peak, and now I am sorry I bought it. Live and learn.

Especially that one. Could have been a culture award for sure. 28
spikes,
at
least. Yowie!!

Ray & Kathy, thanks for answering. I know that environments differ
wildly,
but two grow areas could not be more the same than mine and the one
the
plant came from. I guess the plant is simply miserable anyway. The
good
news is that it has roots everywhere, so if the two sections retain
enough
leaves maybe there's hope.

And yeah, Kath, it does **** me off. $45.00 worth, never mind the
disappointment that comes with watching a gorgeous plant go kaput.
