I got this as a seedling last year and am surprised it's blooming at this size.

I love shape, colors, size of the flowers and flower/plant proportions.

Very nice!! Yours is quite a bit earlier than mine...I think mine bloomed early to mid-summer. Good growing!!

BTW - mine did the same thing (first bloom on a pretty small plant) and it surprised me too. Too bad they don't all bloom at such a small size, eh?

I've never grown this one before. What conditions do you give it?

I treat it like every other Cat I have. No special treatment.
You're right katrina, it would be great if they all bloomed at such a young/small size.
