Rootdr: Be careful not to overwater. I pretty much ignore mine. It can get quite dehydrated and be just fine. There have been a couple of times where I forgot to water it for about a month while it was sitting in the hot FL summer sun. It was really dry and the leaves were withering. I gave it a good dousing of water, and it recovered. It also bloomed for me at Christmas--right on schedule.

There are many colors. I have seen salmon, red, pink, white, white tipped with pink (which is the one I showed above), and a pale yellow. I got the yellow one this year. Here's a picture of the yellow one.
