Very beautiful combo of colours Robert. May I know if you grow them under light or dark shade? The leaves look darkly attractive.:smile:

they grow best under semi shaded area. Too bright and warm will kill them.

Kevyn,

From my observation, they will flower after they 'wake up' from their dormancy. That only happens after they put up few leaves first and usually it's around this time of the year.
