So jealous, mine has been struggling since day 1.

oh really! i was unsure how mine would adjust, but its been thriving so far. i have it in a growtropicals mix, under a grow light \& a himidifier on around 5 hours a day. i live in the uk \& this summer has meant its been no lower than around 20°. hopefully it doesnt decline when the weather drops... Whats your current set up ?

That looks amazing! Which form is this??

#### Tracy Lee replied on 2025-08-16

There’s four different ones. The first one is a hybrid of gloriosum and asplundi. The second one is a gloriosum “Verde”. The third one is a standard species gloriosum and the fourth is a Dean McDowell. I have a few others. At the moment I am so coveting a “Snow Leopard”.
