Which nursery did you visit, cyberloach?

Always seem to have a plant or two of Sophronitis cernua - love it! I think I have 3 of them right now!

It needs to be kept on the dry side after flowering, until new growth appears. I have grown it mounted, potted, in a windowsill, under lights with equal success. It likes moisture when in growth (not constantly wet).
