Its been in my care for only 2 months so I can't take credit for its success. My wife and I were looking for a present at a local nursery and I saw this plant for sale. A collector had donated their collection to the nursery recently. Unfortunately, I don't know how old it is but I'm guessing between 20 to 30 years.

Its been doing very well with tons of new root and leaf growth. And it simply amazed me with the blooms.
