    IC grower. Imaged flower is 2" across the lateral sepals and pleasantly scented. Flowers only last 4-5 days.

    Since the blooms are short lived any chance it blooms more than once a year?

    I only have bloom records for May, June, and July. It's not a floriferous species in my experience.
