Does yours bloom regularly for you, Bob? I've had one of these for years and it's never bloomed yet. I do like the foliage, though. It's much softer than it looks like it would be.

COld hardy too. I have lots of different Nidulariums planted out year round

This photo was taken at the Bot.Gdns.,and yes they bloom at least once a year there,having ideal year-round conditions. The offsets,that is. These 3-4 plants were recently repotted from the mother plant that had blossomed earlier this year.The one I have at home has not bloomed in about 3 years,tho the mother plant did bloom for me maybe 4-5 years ago. I'll try to find the photo I took then. Nids do well here,as they thrive in low light,and we have that most of the time. Bob
Bihai,its great that you can have them outdoors year round,as they must add nicely to your landscaping .
PS: we need more photos from you. You have a fine collection,and we'd like to see more of it,plus your remodeled greenhouse. AND,your last Michael's order.Bob

Here is the photo of this plant in bloom ,or at least the brachts.The petals are not visable,having faded from the day before.They don't usually last the day,which is unfortunate if you're not there to catch it in flower.

I used to have several N. fulgens, which came from "House of G tropicals- has anyone ever heard of it? It ceased to exist a decade or so ago, but I worked there for a while and fed my plant fascination (obsession? addiction?). The squirrels found them tasty and I was able to resurrect one from a little nub of base with a couple roots. It's about six inches in diameter and seems to be thriving. It must be pretty cold hardy, I never lost any of them to the freezes we have a few nights a year. Bihai, what part of the Gulf coast do you inhabit?

Unfortunately I don't live on the Gulf Coast. I live in the very Heart o' Florida, 50 minutes from the Gulf, 50 minutes from the Altantic, in loverly landlocked Gainesville. Home of the Gators.
Bob, I do need to take more photos! Unfortunately I have had HOMEWORK DETAIL since school started, my daughter is weighed down! 6th grade is definitely not the same as I remember it.

bihai, my sympathies on the Homework Detail. Thats a hot topic up here too,so many complaints by students and parents,even making the tv news. Sure is a lot different then when I was in school [and thats a long time ago too].
Picture taking,when you can take your time and relax doing it,is fine. Bob
