Pretty!

how long do the blooms last?
One other thing… Does it need cooler temperatures during the winter rest period? If it does, I can have it shipped to France instead and ask my mother to take it to our countryhouse. There are huge south facing windows where in the room where I want to put it, so it would get lots of light and the temperature is around 48-56F in the winter. But it would be pretty much left to its own devices since in the winter my mom goes to the countryhouse about once a month. How about water?? Do you water at all during the rest period?
Sorry for all the questions, but I love to know everything about the plant I grow/will grow!
