Is this a blooming size plant? I recently bought one on eBay which is about this size and I wonder if I'll have to wait long for the flowering.

Mine bloomed at this size.

Hi,

Just looking at the base, this plant is quite mature. The leaf count is good, so it should be able to support a bloom. These can grow fairly fast and seem to offset well. good sized C. caulescens are also available through a couple nurseries, at least out here in CA. Since they are typically a large plant, they cost more to ship, then they cost to buy.

You're right about the shipping Craig. Cost me $20 for the plant and $18 to ship it. My plant has 7 large leaves and is currently sending up 3 more, but the stalk is still enclosed in the leaf bases although this section is nearly 8" tall and about 2" in diameter.

George,

Sounds about right. Kind of funny, but it shouldn't be.

Take care,
Craig
