Yes, the Papilionanthes are easy to grow, but a B.... to bloom.
I got a few from Hawaii last fall; we will have to see whether the outdoors NJ summer will be enough to produce a few flowers.
I also have Papilionanda Pink Fairy (V. falcata x Ple. teres), which blooms just about year round in the greenhouse.
