Hi all, My group of Glad seed were sown 2007. Though a year younger than yours they get very good light during winter. Their growth is certainly not what I would consider fast. I have had only one glad to actualy get to bloom size G. carneus. I had one bloom last year and going to have 2 blooms this year. All of the other glads I have are still quite small, similar in size to what you have. My G. equitans is getting wide leaves but they are really short in comparison to my other glads.
