Well, I have 6 and two are blooming.
How can you find the time to take care of them all?

Your ratio is better than mine

How do I take care of them? Well, I didn't get into this hobby until I retired from work, so I have more time than a working person. And I really try to keep them potted up and not way overdue for it. I am always re-potting a few it seems, but it is never a big daunting job and usually not a big emergency. That keeps it from being stressful. I grow mine in a greenhouse attached to our house and water about once a week, but that varies depending if its summer or winter. Because they are in a greenhouse, I don't have to worry about spilling water on the floor etc. and that makes it a bit easier too. I keep saying -NO MORE! But then I get another one or six

It sure is looking good at your house. I wish I had a green house to make things easier.

They are all so lovely I can't find a fav.
