This is a pretty famous cross, and I recall one speaker who was a miniature Catt specialist say this was hard to grow because it favored the Sophronitis for temperature. So you may want to think about the temperature of your growing area. Also, both luteola and coccinea are low light plants, so I would guess you should not give it Catt light. Well, this is what I have from hear say. Haven't grown Beaufort, but killed a hybrid with it. Now the plant probably expired from the unrecognized, at the time, fusarium infection going round my GH. But it may have been susceptible because of the stress of being a little too warm. Good luck with this plant.
