I'm glad someone finally asked this as well. I have a P. Moranensis
that keeps trying and trying to put up flowers, but never makes it.
Judging from Peter's email, I think I'm keeping my guy too wet. The
only other thing (which I can't currently control) is the wide
temperature fluctuation in my sun-room...50s (10c) at night, 90+ (32c)
(sometimes 100) in the day.
Just more data to consider.....it would be nice to solve the problem, as I've
seen it lose about 6 flowers over the past few months. Other than that the
plant seems to be fine.
