    A great species, which is why it seems almost everyone has one!

    I've had one of these for at least 10 years and have never had a flower. What's the secret?

    Everyone says these are so easy. I haven't tried for years, but I was pretty good at killing them before they flowered.

    it lives outside top of 4 shelves, in the back, up against a wall, only direct AM sun, i never bother it, i water it once a week with hose water, throw a cup or 2 of Miracle Grow type fertilizer at it a few times a year. The others i killed got more sun and more attention.
    Thnx
