Connie, I do have two of these....the second is a little smaller.( but also with spikes)..but since we have limited space, we are trying to grow them into more of a "display" plant...the former caretaker of the greenhouse just chopped them up ----every year----need it or not----so they are getting a chance to recover now.....I have some gigantic Cattleya trainei (sp?) that just finished blooming...some had 4 blooms and three spikes per plant ! it was great !
