Tom,

How do you grow this one? I have been thinking of getting one but I'm not sure I can keep it cool and humid enough down here.

Brandon, I don't recommend this specis if you can't provide cool temperature and good humidity. The temperature in my growing area is not higher than 73F in the summer; in the winter it is 10 degrees cooler, low at night is about 55F+-; RH is at least 60%, up to high 80s%.....

beautiful... too bad i dont have the conditions for it.

Wow, those are beautiful, and the foliage looks so cool!

[BKirk783]

Thanks, Tom. I can keep it cool enough inside and humid enough outside. The summers here are pretty warm usually 85F or warmer. I'll defer until I can meet those conditions.
