    If she's producing corms - I'll buy one!

      I am using Sydney Plant Guy’s method β€” he has a lot of videos about his stunning frydek on his YouTube! It’s a glass vase with leca at the bottom and sphagnum moss as my potting medium. My plant lost all of its leaves from shock when I switched it to this semi-hydro method - the new growth ever since has been beautiful!

      This is a better view of my setup :) (I would not recommend a container that slopes in at the top like this unless you’re okay with smashing the container to get the plant out if you ever need to repot)

      Lastly, I keep mine in an IKEA greenhouse cabinet that has barrina grow lights on for about 12-14 hours per day!
