They need lots of water and what I can't fit in the kitchen sink gets placed in the shower. Only 1 bloomed for me this past summer-fall but I'm so smitten with the flower and fragrance that being a glutton for punishment will continue. And those coco fiber liners have not been my favorite.
Thanks for sharing your experience, DeaC! I have to admit that if it wasn’t for my environment, I wouldn’t be able to dedicate the time to grow anything—growers like yourself in higher latitudes that move their collections with the seasons will forever have my veneration!
