Nice growing! I too have this one from Andy's but I live in Maine and it struggles to bloom.....but it does, just not so often. :) Thanks for sharing!

I saw yours on your other thread. It looks great. Amazing that you can grow anything like that in Maine! You should be proud.

And to WhiteRabbit, I did a little checking and it looks like the plant is about 1' by 1' and the flowers measure about 2 inches across.
This is a great hardy grower for my area of the country. I've only brought her inside a couple of nights when I knew the temps were going to get below freezing. Other than that, she lives outside all the time. She's hanging from the eave of my front porch which faces WNW. I'm in the Monterey Bay area. I highly recommend this one!

Awesome! Thanks for the info Ray! I live in SF Bay Area, and was wondering about it's cold tolerance. All of my windows are full of orchids for the winter, and I fear if I want any new ones they need to either be very small or able to live outside year round lol (with an eye kept on overnight low temps)
This one is being added to my wish list :)
