Hi Wilson,
That is a beauty for sure! Mine are outside now, gaining strength and making bublets, then they will spend 5 months in cool storage for blossoms around the middle of Feburary.

Do you have more? I only keep two as I just don't have the room in the house to keep them come time to start their cycle.

Very pretty! I love the green shade. I have one called and "apple bloosom" that is white in the center and pinkish edges. I never gave them a rest period or cut them back last year, but they still had a gorgeous show this year with 4 flowers per stem. I wish they were still blooming like yours.

Do you give them a rest cycle? HOw long?

I like the color on that one a lot. Mine are outside for the summer too. I usually get at least one to bloom outside, and sure enough, one has a three foot spike on it as we speak.
