This is this plants second time blooming. It gave me 6 flowers this year. It's come a long way from the tiny seedling in a 2" pot I carried home from the Big Island. It's also very fragrant.

Well done, Terri. I love this cross, but have never had any luck with it. This summer, I decided to try one more time. So far, it is growing very well, so hopefully, I'll get some blooms fairly soon. I'll enjoy yours in the mean time.

Stunning, Terri. I've never seen a photo of a whole cluster of Chocolate Drop's in bloom. You've done a great job. How long have you been growing her?

June, I bought her in September 07. Her first bloom was last year so it took about 2 years to mature to blooming size.

Kim I'm growing mine intermediate-warm, and very bright. It's also extremely pot bound. When you pick up the pot and give it a squeeze it doesn't budge. Sollid as a rock. I've been noticing that quite a few of my Catts bloom better when pot bound. They still bloom if not pot bound but I don't get near the flower count as I do when their shoes are really tight!
