I wonder how long the flower will last and I would love to hear from you based on your experience...
The flower only lasted for 20 days when it bloomed the first time. Since the plant has been well established now, I hope it will last much longer as some online sources/books indicate the flower is long-lasting.

I don't remember mine as particularly short blooming... But maybe a couple months.

Update--the flower lasted for a full month this time, much better than its last bloom. It is not long-lasting like the others but I am fine with it. Probably, I will be tired of the flower anyway after a full month.
It will bloom frequently enough make up for whatever the flower lacks in longevity.
I only got a month out of any of mine before they started to fade. Yours looks nicer than the ones I grew out years ago.
