Here we are a year later and I find this thread, I'm still 'new' here and find new stuff all the time. I'm surprised that there are so few pics on this thread.
I agree with Htop.
A friend snipped 2 cuttings for me about 20 years ago. They both took off, one is still going at a friends house with more room.
The one pictured below is 2nd generation, about 9 years old. The flowers belong to a 3rd generation plant but included to show the flower.
They have been indoors for 2 weeks now. I think most of the leaf drop is over. It's loaded with buds and will flower almost Daly from now until Valentines Day.
I keep them in this south facing window in winter and outside in summer, always in the pot. I spray with a 'fruit tree' spray (for bugs), let them dry and then hose them down to wash the insecticide off just before I bring them in.
I grow the Hardy ones also but these tropicals are a constant learning experience.
