Almost missed this bloom.) It is so tiny, but there are many this year. Several stems have blooms. They are very cute.

Good job. Ask me how many of those I've killed.

I am still figuring out what it likes and what it doesn’t. So far I have learned that it does not like to stand in water, prefers moderate temperatures and can tolerate cold deeps for short periods of time.)

I grow it in a net pot, started out in sphagnum. Most of the sphagnum is now just fibers, and it seems to be very happy growing in essentially nothing.

I can confirm “growing in essentially nothing”. Mine is in a tiny clay pot that can hold tightly one packing peanut. Plant is times larger than its clay pot.
