Your welcome. I'm still surprised how small it is. Do they need any special requirements to bloom? Like temp
It is an intermediate grower. cooler and drier in early winter will help to induce the blooms.
According to my ref. book, natural habitat temperature range-- Summer: 87--62F, Winter: 63--40F, that is just a guideline.

Mine bloomed the end of May,(1st 3 pics) and is budding again( pic today)
It stays inside in 80 degree days and 70s at night and is under lights on for 13 hrs this time of year.
I thought I would experiment a couple of months ago and am shutting the lights off 2 times a day. Im thinking along the lines of cloud cover
