What is this plant?

[Valdes]

That's a beautiful plant. Never seen it before, but I'm not an expert so no surprise there.

Some plants nearly always in bloom, throughout the year: Aglaia odorata, Jasminum sambac 'Maid of Oleans'.

Some plants that bloom well in a sunny window during the winter: Sweet Olive, Meyer's Lemon, Camellias, various Jasmines (Jasminum polyanthum will give a glorious display and Jasminum nitidum will have flushes of flowers every time you have dim weather and then sunshine--will give a nice flush in the summer, too.).

Under lights: guava, mulberry, Muntingia calabura, avocado, and Pomegranate 'Nana', Cestrum nocturnum, unknown butterwort

There are many others. I have forced bulbs in the past to have Christmas blooms but my family is not fond of plants in the fridge...not at all. I grow saffron and that blooms for me in the winter. I sometimes buy the Paperwhite (Narcissus) bulbs on sale after Christmas. Freesia always blooms for me during the winter (I am starting over with those, this year, as I forgot and gave away some of those large plants after cuttings rooted--the freesia were planted in those pots).

I have not grown the polyanthum as it blooms just the once. I only grow the tea Camellia as, again, these are a once-a-year bloomer and I have limited space.

Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix is a wonderful place to visit in the winter. The weather is generally mild and there are lots of interesting outdoor plants. The aloes tend to bloom about in January, and there are others. Highly recommended if you are housebound in the winter!

For all year colour I have an anthurium, which has been constantly in bloom for the last ten years.

Gingers are, unfortunately, poor house plants. Most are very large plants. They tend to do poorly without high humidity. Most of the prettier ones need very cool temperatures combined with the high humidity. And they are spider mite magnets. Turmeric (a ginger) is relatively small, likes warmth and might be worth a try as a house plant. You can plant fresh rhizomes you buy at markets. They won't sprout until they think conditions are correct, so don't give up.

Succulentists are breeding super-dwarf Aloes, which usually bloom in the winter. They are easily grown on the windowsill, and they don't mind getting chilly at night - so long as they don't get to freezing. Aloes are also fine with next to no humidity all year, such as in a heated house.

I've been looking at anthuriums quite a bit lately online and in stores. I'm interested in the white ones. The red ones actually never did much for me.
