Update with more blooms. I think there's two more buds yet to go.

Looking great! (Mine just sitting there, it's been cloudy and cool)

It rarely happens for me on a project plant. Gotta get it where and when I can.

A year too late, but I just got a Leptotes bicolor from Brookside. It came in bud, very cute. Thank you in advance for all of the wonderful advice in this thread as I decide how to grow it in my collection.

Never too late for this delightful species (and the rest of the genus)!

One bud on my pohlitinocoi. Unicolor putting out a few new roots. Nothing happening with pauloensis except it doesn't look very "happy". Might have to try a different location with that one.

Looking forward to flowers! Pauloensis tends to bloom more like December/January so maybe next winter. Get some growing done.

These aren't in the "project", not newly acquired, I have had members of the genus Leptotes for some years. But just to get in the spirit... Lpt. harryphillipsi (which is very similar to Lpt. pauloensis, was at one time considered a synonym but now separate species) bloomed in January. A bit of an outlier. Now, getting into the spring bloomers. First up is Lpt. pohlitinocoi . Here the plant. Lpt bicolor is full of fat buds, expect it in the next week or so. Lpt. unicolor seems to have just one bud, will be a little behind bicolor. So more on the way.

Isn't that named after Andy Phillips' (Andy's Ochids) brother?
