Hello all,

Just had the first bloom of the fall on my P. Anastasia. I counted 8 more buds, and it looks like there will be a multi-bloom day or two. This one definitely prefers the cooler weather (60s and 70s), as opposed to our 80 and 90-degree summer heat. It struggles through the summer looking somewhat sickly, and then starts growing around mid-September. Last year I only got one flower on this plant, in December, and the color was a bit different.

Here's a pic:
