Default Cirr. Sunshine Queen 'Orangy'

This Cirrhopetalum seems to bloom all year round. The flowers unfortunately do not live long (3-5 days at most). The plants are easy to grow and divide. They like growing under shady conditions in New Zealand sphagnum moss.

Very nice, and nice picture of the backside. A side we rarely see here on OB. What conditions do you grow in under?

I'm in Aiea, Hawaii just above Pearl Harbor. We have lots of sunlgiht with temperatures ranging from 65 to 88 degrees Fahrenheit. Cirr. Sunshine Queen is grown in my shade house with 50% shade screen. The plant is in grown in a plastic pot with New Zealand Sphagnum moss as the media. The media is always kept moist. I find Sunshine Queen to be an easy grower and frequent bloomer.
