Absolutely gorgeous. I have one also....it's about 1/4 the size of yours, but it's about 5 years old. I cannot get it to grow any more. What's your secret?

I gave it a rest peroid from the last of september to around January first. i didn't feed or give it much water just enough to keep it from drying out to much. then i increased the water and started feeding it. for the last few years it was as you said yours was, it just didn't grow or bloom very much. and this year it has really took off. i give it a lot of bright light and some early morning sun. i found the culter sheet on google and i was doing every thing wrong.hope this helps. Thanks Tommy
