Hmm, sounds like our "species nova #4", (bought as something else...). Let
me know what the flowers look like when/if it does. Ours only produce 1 per
rosette just before they enter dormancy.
BTW, in case I haven't mentioned it before, the D. intermedia "Cuba"
seedlings have just produced their first flowers - very promising.
Hopefully they will survive the winter and continue to increase in size.
