    That is gorgeous! Could you share with me how you care for yours? Mine grows, but doesn't bloom. Do you have it in full sun? Do you fertilize it with the 5-5-5 formula?
    Thanks...

    The plant is in a big pot with little porous media. In full sun. No fertilizer, ever. Only daily waterings.

    I used to scold it also, for just being there, with no achievements, hahaha. Until it bloomed.
