Beautiful Wylie. I have just brought mine back in from the greenhouse where it's been since spring. This was following your advice from January that they need lots of light to flower. It has had tomato fertilizer once a week too. I live in hope.

I get a little confused by this plant. It is supposed to be tropical, yet it flowers for me when the temperatures go down. And this and the S. nicholai seem to bloom whenever they feel like it, especially the black & white one.
