spectabilis really is probably my favorite species, that or veitchii, i cant decide lol. but only particular forms of veitchii, but i love all spectabilis, so i think there is your answer rofl.
It really is worth the trouble to get it to grow, in my opinion. before i had a greenhouse, my north sumatra spectabilis form was in a west facing windowsill and it barely did anything (washington kinda sucks for attempting to grow plants on a windowsill) and well, it just wasnt cutting it, so i had to make room in my indoor grow rack with my other highlanders which involved buying more lights, moving tiers, rearranging plants etc, and that seemed to help...it started to grow well, and even flowered for its first time. Last year when i built my greenhouse and got my neps in it, i had never seen so much robust, healthy growth. So it really surprised me that when i moved them into the garage under fluorescent lights, that they did so well. now i hope this year in the greenhouse, with some coffee and ferts, they provide even more outstanding, lush growth.
Thanks for the great comments guys
