    Default Sharry Baby blooming size

    Has anyone raised their Sharry Baby from a seedling? I got this one as a bonus plant last fall, and I was just curious how large they need to be at first blooming. It had two pseudobulbs when I first got it, and it put out two more this spring.

    You will see a spike soon then. We used to ship them in from Hawaii small like that and they would always bloom for us the next season. (As soon as they put on new growth)

    Cheers,

    good luck with getting it to bloom soon... the plant seems to be really happy sending out two new growths! so keep up what you're doing right!
