Arnold,
Thanks for the info. I only have the one aril and the rest of the bed
consist of arilbreds and only one TB, which is an old one here and I know
can survive whatever conditions are thrown its way. All but the aril have
good, tho varying color. The aril just looks less healthy. However, one
of the two bud stalks is showing color today and I am anticipating with
excitement having it bloom for the first time.
