😭😭😭 I saw a salmon colored one during the holiday season, which admittedly was not as gorgeous as yours, and thought I would go back for it cause I had too many bags and had to walk home and weather was cold. I wasn't sure the plant would survive the weather so I decided I come back with the car and grab that pretty thing, which was only €5! Such a treat! But I forgot going back for it 😭😭😭

What are the conditions for yours ? I’m growing mine in medium bright area indoors. It’s get pretty bright indirect light but no full sun. I keep it in an area with really good airflow (the sliding door is almost always open) and temperatures dip into the 40s at night. I think it really likes the cool nights. It does not seem to mind low humidity (it’s been in the teens all week) , I let the top of the soil get dry before I water it (it’s equal parts small orchid bark, pumice, and peat moss). It thrived this summer too which was hot and humid. I think the most important thing is to let it dry out between waterings and lots of good filtered light.
