I also had a lot of new growth (right after it bloomed) but I probably failed to water enough, so my advice is to water slightly more often when you notice that the NEW leaves are growing wrinkly. The wrinkles will not grow out...

With the new growth, Nelly has tripled in size Right now I'm tring to figure out how to get it to rebloom , because the red, scented blooms were the most beautiful I have seen so far...

(I'll post some 'wrinkly' pictures aswell, somewhat "don't try this at home" thing ... you can see them best on the repotting pictures)

Hope I could help

Thanks for the info, I'll keep it firmly in mind particularly now the heating is on!

I've read somewhere that the leaves wrinkle when it hasn't had enough humidity... have you read anything about that?

I'd love to hear how you get on with reblooming!

Mine still has a spike in bloom, although there are only half a dozen or so left.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience... I'm a sponge these days!
