After leaving her in the garage for two weeks she is now seeing the bright sun again! Blooming her head off and loves the spot she was put back to.

She tropicals are forgiving!

You know what? I forgot to tell you that a few days ago, I went to the farm stand to get green peppers and they had a big potted one of these blooming...I did like a double take, and then asked the man what it was, and if it was for sale.....He said it was a Mandella and that it was $25......It looked like yours, Karma.......Pink.....No, I did not buyt it

LG, that was cheap for one of them! I like to buy mine small and let them grow. We currently have 2, Janell is to small to bloom and we hope to add more. This is one I haven't tried rooting over the winter months but maybe this winter I should try?
