    How cool!!!! I can’t believe mine is still got leaves on it and starting to grow new ones even. What’s your secret to keeping them going? This is my first one.

      So typically after they bloom they will shed most if not all of their leaves but do not be alarmed when this happens they usually need a dormancy period every year and will start getting leaves back in the spring. Most people throw them out when they go dormant thinking they are dead. They are very sensitive to being repotted so really limit the frequency of repotting.

      Oh ok good to know! Mines gone quiet bald legged but still has the coloured petals on so I thought maybe I was doing something wrong. Good to know they need some dormancy period and will bounce back in spring. Thanks! I’ll just let her do its thing! Do you cut yours back? Someone said I should cut it back but I was waiting for all the leaves to fall off first. I was kinda loathe to do it bc she’s so pretty and full

    Awe I wish mine was still alive. It lasted 2.5 years longest I’ve ever kept one alive.
