I got this plant from Andy's last fall. So, This is a first time bloomer for me. Flowers smell like honey to me.

I've have to water daily since about march because of the dry heat and how it's mounted. I go off the fern when to water. No fertilizer since I got it. Had slight winter rest.

Enjoy!!!!

Really nice, Keith! Good idea to use that fern as a watering gauge...

Good growing. Very nice. How long does the flower last?

Great growing and great flower. I can't wait for mine to bloom. My plant is about the same size as yours. Do you give it a winter rest like the 'nobile' type??? How cool do you keep it in winter?
