This Plant was 3 leaves when I rescued it. this was taken 1-10-2013. Thumb of 2013-02-19/landals/1ca025
They are always blooming. I have them Thumbs up in a clay pot so I have put saran wrap around the edge of the pot so that the leaves
and the pot do not touch. I water them from the bottom and they sit in natural sunlight.
