Thanks @pauline33, the b&w seems to bring out the detail, and it's natural colour is not much to write home about ☺️

This is one plant that gets the better of me time and time again. I think I may be keeping them too dry.

It was curtains for this plant too after it flowered, but it was stressed when I bought it (dry!)🤔 @Yollymac

Yes they do make terminal flowers but should also offset more beads to keep going. Did yours do that?

No, no offsets, I left it and waited patiently but no joy. Eventually just an empty space where it used to be. Plus the odds were against it with our weather last year I suppose 😟 @Yollymac
