Oesterdella centradenia in bloom
 

Went away at the beginning of December. We came back this weekend to find this in bloom!! :D

Beautiful! I killed mine :( What is your secret?

It's planted in a net pot inside a normal pot. It has very little medium and lives in a terrarium (no lights or sprinkler system) with a layer of leca which stays damp average humidity 70% in front of a W facing window. Gets watered (by soaking) once a week or every 10 days or more in winter. Hope this helps.

Beautiful flowers. The color and form is quite interesting.

Ooo! Lovely!

Nice.

Thanks for looking and commenting Carrie, Bud, Sonya and Kim. I hope to grow this into a much bigger plant like pics I have seen on the web...

Lovely plant! I've killed a couple of these, too, I think my mistake was keeping them too dry.

Well I can't believe it has been over a month this is in bloom and still looks good! No flowers wilted yet(and it was packed for 24h for a move further 'south')... Here is a photo from today, it has not missed a beat! I really can't wait to grow this even more to a specimen size!

Gorgeous, Nenella.
