Little reminder to you and me, there is still summer indoors! This fellow bloomed all summer, but I believe it to be a true fall bloomer. First flowering was only a short one last fall.

Super indoor plant, Greenthumb, the flowers look similar to a lobelia flowers. I am trying to see the temp on your thermometer!! Lovely to see a pic of you it's great to put a face to the name!!:o)

Lol, thanks Janey. This one has been with me for almost six years and only bloomed this one. Really getting huge and a great show, it's coming into its season now with fall. Outdoors are 35F day and 15-20F nights. I use the theremmeter through winter to regulate temp for bulbs and such overwintering in slumber conditions. It's just hanging with these guys for the summer. :-)

I have this one GT. Yours looks great! Mine nearly died, it got really leggy and also needed to be repotted. I bought it in bloom and then nearly killed it. It's making a comeback. It's small, but healthy looking. I wish that it would flower again.

This whole year it bloomed, then I cut it back, and moved it. One of the cuttings bloomed since. I had to baby it to this, I think I'll see a comeback if I leave it alone.
