Lots of growing. I don't have this one yet lol. Maybe in the fall. I'm kinda running out of room here!!!! Still acclimating here from my last order I will get some pics of my collection up when they are finally done with old growth dying off and have new growth. They always look rough for a bit lol

Cory: yes sometimes you have to wait months for the first new growth.

Matt: Wow thanks ! The bb you had was from wistuba?

Yeah. I've lost quite a few plants from Andreas, unfortunately :( Spent loads of money with him and only had a few survive (some partly my fault, some arrived in very poor condition, some arrived dead), so I don't order any more.

He's changed his shipping methods around nowadays.
I have ordered from him several times and haven't lost one yet

Same here. Never had any problem with him.

Matt, if your plants are in bad shape at arrival, i think andreas will deal you something. Its always frustrating when i got my plants in bad shape:/

Special care and extremely high humidity along with about 2 months of acclimation is needed to keep them going.
It's quite a bit to deal with for awhile. Once they settle in its really no harder than any other heli.
