Great Job! Especially knowing how small the seedlings are when they hatch and how much care you need to give them to get the blooming size so fast.

I am sure when they start blooming - your house will be mobbed with friends who want to adopt one or 2 or 3. You will be overwhelmed with requests. You can restart any one of them from a cutting or a leaf. Usually they produce a tuber first- and then the new growth from the baby tuber will give you a bloom.

Thank you irina! I sure hope so:) I have about a dozen to part with, already gave away about a dozen.[not blooming thou]

She opened, and she is far different in color than the parent plant! This first pic, is the pollen/pod parent: a bright hot pink:
