The two I have are pretty tall as well, it’s pretty normal for them to be on the taller side. This one looks great!

Thank you!! Im obsessed and bought so many different bulbs🤪

#### Manda Lee antwoordde op 2023-08-07

I don’t blame you! In my environment they are such an easy plant and I haven’t had to do much with maintaining them. And the colors they come in are so pretty.

#### steph antwoordde op 2023-08-07

Yes very low maintenance!!

Mine grew to about 3 feet tall! Yours looks really happy with the that bark and perlite mixture. It’ll probably get even taller!

#### steph antwoordde op 2023-08-08

No way! Will it need support at that point or are they usually fine on their own?

#### Grant antwoordde op 2023-08-08

Mine is fine so far, it really grows towards the light though so I have to rotate it frequently to keep it from really tilting in one direction
