>Anybody here at the PBS bulletin board having good growing tip about >this species? Dear Tomas, I have grown this species for a few years and give it no special treatment, It is wintered in the pot in a cool greenhouse although a bit warmer this winter. When it shows signs of growing I begin to water lightly at first then more. Now the growing point is 6 -7 inches tall and expanding daily. It has bloomed in this pot and has enormous foliage and tall flower stem. It is in a large pot -maybe 10 gals capacity. With regular fertilizing in growth. I do nothing other than this for a few other Eucomis, but I got a large size bulb to begin with and it may just be bulb size that determines bloom. No special care needed here. Best wishes.
