Default Masd. Machu Picchu

This is my 2nd try at growing this. I bloomed one before, but it and several others finally succumbed to heat stress in my greenhouse in summer. I got this last March, again from Ecuagenera. It has survived a summer under my care. Some of the leaves have grown a little folded, likely due to lack of humidity. But it didn't get black spots on the leaves from heat stress like my other did. I kept this right near a cold air intake that cuts in when the temps in the greenhouse get near 90F. I had it potted in a clay pot, but it came from a Dollar Store and just seemed to have a glaze on the inside that this and several other plants didn't like. So I moved it into a clear plastic pot in fall and I see nice roots growing and some of the newer leaves aren't as folded. I think I will try summering it out in a shaded area of my flower bed next summer. Masd. Machu Picchu-_dsc7328_2015-12-20_6832-jpg
