"Not sure how old the AVs are, but they still look too small to bloom. Judging from their sizes, I would say that the single ones in pics #2, #3, and #4 should bloom around April/May. Make sure their potting soil is fresh and they get good light. Feed them "weekly but weakly"."

Most of the AV's are starts from leaves at different times...It is a collection of so many
different propagations that many don't even have a tag on them as to color.
Then again--many of the smaller ones have the same color tag, because many of the
leaves came from my TWO existing AV's. So--I have an abundance of many of the same..

Then, of course, over time--I have acquired leaves from AV's from different sources.
They all have rooted and are now growing out.

They were ALL freshly repotted in that amazing AV soil (same as I gave you) and I am
Keeping a water bottle on the table with MG-AV liquid fertilizer in it--and, any time i see
a dry AV--I water it. I check every day. Not every one gets watered at the same time.

The light is a 100W CFL shaped like a spot light. Whether that is enough--I do not know.
They seem to be doing OK. I am sure more light would not hurt--but150W bulbs are hard to find...
Don't want to blow a circuit either...

At least they are warm--NOT cold as they were sitting on the shelf against my LR window.

I suppose it is going to be a waiting game. Gita

Here--just took this to show you.
It looks dim--but that is what indoor lights look like when you take a picture...
