I'm very frustrated with C. walkeriana

[tucker85]

I have two C. walkeriana. They grow very well and form buds 3 times a year. But they almost never bloom. The buds always rot and fail to produce a flower. After 2 years and 6 different sets of buds, I finally got one flower on one of my walkerianas. This time it had 4 buds and only one bloomed. I don't know if it's too hot down here, or if the frequent rains cause a problem. In any case I think I may give it away to a friend of mine who wants to try his hand at it.
