These are available about any time of the year here, but spring seems to be the peak in the market.
I had a very good place where I could buy these really cheap, but the place got really small and I'm not sure if I could get very lucky this coming spring. will see.

I love these but avoided them because of negative stuff I read about them.
They are all wrong. These plants are not cool growing and at least the hybrids are very vigorous.
These are very sensitive to underwatering though showing wrinkled leaves right away.
My main problem was being lazy with repotting (these are something that truly benefit from repotting every year) and incorrect watering.
I know a place where I get these cheap, well, I used to, so I didn't mind tossing the plants.
There are so many exciting hybrids to choose from and many are deliciously fragrant!
