This is my hindu rope. It is now 10ft in length and covered in blooms. I posted a few weeks ago on antoher thread within this forum that I had taken a head count of the peduncles on this plant. I stopped counting at 129 and that wasnt all of them. I said i'd post pics when more opened so here it is.

Currently there are about 50 open peduncles of blooms on this plant. There was just no way that I could get a shot of the entire plant but this will give you an idea of wht it looks like right now.


If you look at the bottom of the pic try to imagine 2 1/2 to 3 more feet of growth below that all loaded with flowers. Everything that you see that looks like pink balls on the rope is a peduncle of open flowers!
