That is a gem Hywel! Would it be ok in an unheated greenhouse?

It comes from high up in the Andes in Northern Argentina, so I suppose it can stand quite low temps. You'd have to keep it very dry though ... and they flower better if given a winter's rest anyway.
This is a fantastic show. It hasn't produced this many flowers before.

Thanks Hywel. One for the list for next year then.
