The growths on this plant are a dark red. I've had other SLC's bloom with no problem. I was thinking maybe I would divide the plant and put half on a mount and leave the other half potted where it is. It's a very prolific grower. It grows three new growths at a time and this is the plants second set of new growths. I will try giving it even more light, though. I was holding back because of all the Sophronitis in it. A lot of the Sophro is made up of renamed Brazilian Lailias. It really has a complicated background. I'll keep you posted on any changes made. Thanks for the input.
