I don't think it's labelled correctly buy hey I love the flowers! I had asked how to get it to flower back in autumn well maybe it's a summer bloomer. It was worth the wait 11 blooms! I'm ecstatic to say the least.:D

Beautiful! Did it go dormant? My pileatum is just barely started growing again.

Mine too.

It didn't go dormant last winter. I did keep giving it a little water and it kept 6 leaves out of 7 leaves. I left it under artificial light like the others.
The leaves all fell in the last week of March. The new growth came out at about the same time. Strange isn't it?

A pileatum it is not. Looks like a hybrid with C. tenebrosum or kleberianum. Maybe C. Pileabrosum. Could be more generations involved. Attractive in any case. Check C. Double Down in the net. Some look a bit like this and it is currently making the rounds.

Looks good!

My first thought was also Ctsm. Pileabrosum.
