    A faithful bloomer and a favorite in my collection. I grow mine bright under additional lighting, intermediate temperatures. I water less in the winter, but it has refused to rest for me completely. The orlata color variety is non-fragrant. The second image is a better representation of the actual color.

    Very nice. Is everything you grow in grow cases or do you have other spaces too?

    Edit: Never mind. I found the answer in another thread.

    Thanks! :) Yes Marni, I have a growing window too... but I really like vivariums (since I can't fit a greenhouse in the apartment), everything just thrives!!
