Incredible. Your photos really do your plants justice. Would also like to see a photo of the whole plant.

Quite royal in the deep purple velvet. I feel like I could
reach out and touch that pouch. Lovely photos and congrats on blooming the plant so well.

In summer I give it the max light level it can take... that means several hours of direct sun (from the beginning of the day to midday)... Temps are cool at night, and almost alway under 86 F (30 C) at day. The highs are usually 24 to 27 C I would say.

The mix is 2 years old. Lots of rockwool... maybe with bark and LECA... don't remember... And with Oyster shells. Il fertlize almost with every watering (and I water almost everyday). Fert solution is 60 to 135 ppm total. There is always water in the saucer.
