    Wow wow wow ! I am literally jumping with joy ! Thanks for these pictures Harvey. I will be viewing them for atleast 4 to 5 times a day for the next couple of days (yeah I am really crazy lol). Excellent plants and such vibrant colourful flowers. Each and every plant is going to my wish list. Secondly because of your grouping it will surely help to know which plants will bloom together for such a magnificent display. Please also share your cultural regimen to get such fantastic blooms.

    Thank you everyone for your comments and have a very happy New Year!

    @Halloamey --- nothing special really. In a nutshell, only 3 things matter to me: good light, good drainage (I use Hydroton and I do not let the plants reach bone-dry state in my watering regimen) and fertilizing weekly-weakly when plants are in active growth. When repotting, I try to minimize root damage... Pretty much everything I do is mentioned in this forum by expert growers
