Don't tell me about cold weather! It was 4.7 degrees here in east central Kentucky this morning and we are not forecast to go above freezing all next week. My daughter from upstate NY was in Orlando for the holidays as her husband's high school band was at Disney World and was in the Capital One bowl parade a few days ago. They were enjoying their break from winter.

Thanks for replying. If you have the blooming plants indoors at night, you will smell the flowers three rooms away, as they are very fragrant. I am not very faithful about watering the plants, so am not quite sure what I am doing to encourage or discourage the blooming. Here's another view.

Many people I have talked to didn't know they ever bloom, and I can remember my mother marveling at how hers only bloomed when she was expecting me. That was 69 years ago, so when mine started blooming it put a real scare into me.
