I hope you don't mind me saying that you have taken these beauties from low spike, to high spike, to full bloom. You can therefore in my way of thinking take some credit for these flowers. AL

Thanks, Al. There were eight (8!) spikes when I purchased it. Unfortunately some were developing at a weird angle and water must have got stuck in the bracts when developing, so they blasted. Another 2 spikes are on the way.

Hmm... what's with all these 'mine refuses to bloom' statements..? You're scaring me now.. It is supposed to require a long dry rest to induce blooming after the new growths mature.

Zainal, I'm in Australia at the moment...

If you in Australia is no problem for the sure it will bloom for you cause of temperature different is very marked during day time and night. I had very huge clump none of them in respond to long drier season willing to put bud at all, even I got B. magnicalcarata also share similar habit refused at all, not suitable for lowland love cool ....
