You might recognise this as the avatar I've had since the summer. This guy flowered for the first time in July, but it's hardly been out of bloom since. I never got around to posting the full pics of it here and so here they are, with the last one being a quick greenhouse snap taken a couple of weeks ago. It has more buds coming as well.

It grows really well in my greenhouse in a porous clay pot. It hardly had any roots when I bought it a couple of years ago, but seems to have taken off and grown lovely roots and leaves last year, and this year as well as growing it's just seemed to want to flower all the time!

Very nice Rosie. I picked one up from J&L this spring. If it looks half as nice as yours, Ill be a happy camper.
