    10 spikes, but only one flower...the other spikes have dried!!!
    I think that I should have give it more water ...

    This is one that does best for me mounted with daily water. I have a division mounted and one about 3 times the size potted. The mounted one just bloomed, but the potted one didn't even put up spikes.

    Gilles, I really like this. For scale, how big is the pot or height of the plant?
