It will take a lot less time than you think, Eric. You'll be looking for a new challenge pretty soon - I know I did!

You are right Mike, best advice re Arios came from Rene Giesler a few years ago. Grow your plants as close to the glass as possible. My shelf is inches from the apex. Also they do not burn. Cheers

Here's another one taken yesterday. This is from Society seed 2007 and named A. kotschoubeyanus ssp skarupkianus but that name seems to have disappeared. Anybody know?
