I had one for years that bloomed a gorgeous pink and white bloom. I got it out of the garbage in a store after CHristmas. I had it for years and it bloomed like crazy. I don't have a good place for plants now so I gave it to my mom. THey need to be in a location that has to proper times of light and dark. When mine was in the living room it didn't bloom much. I kept it in front of a window in an unused bedroom and then it bloomed like crazy. If it is in a room where the lights are on a lot it doesn't know what season it is.
