Stunning! You've done a great job with that one. I've got a little red Twinkle Onc. that is a long way from yours, but it is nice to see their full potential when given time and effort.

Thanks! You'd be surprised how quickly these grow. It puts out multiple growths every year and has a smaller flush of blooms in the summer as well.

Mine never blooms twice. I wonder if it's because it's not a white one. J&L has the white one and they say it blooms twice a year. They had the yellow one but must have sold out now. But they didn't say that about it, interesting.

But mine is not white. It is pink, and it almost seems to me in summer, it is a darker pink, but can't remember for sure.

So what the heck is wrong with mine??? Can't be me I am waiting to see the new growth start as it is in big need of a re-pot.

Mine is a much smaller show in summer. I keep this a lot moister than I thought it would like.

I know I have mine in much to big of bark. I am going to re-pot it in seedling mix, perhaps this will help. I didn't know at the time and I don't think I water mine enough either. I'm going to try a step it up and see if I can get it to bloom again. I'm still waiting to start to see new growth to re-pot. But I'm about to do it anyway.

Yes, I water about every 3 days and still barely fight off pb wrinkling.

I will step up the watering. I just saw yesterday a new growth so re-pot will begin.
