Well - please don't tell mine that they are supposed to be tricky! They live in the garden in shade, only getting sunlight before 10am and after 4pm, temps at the moment of 72f nighttime and 84f during the day. I guess the temp differential is just enough to make them flower regularly about every 6 months, and are just putting out new flower spikes off the old ones - my neighbour has even more than I do, and hers are the same.

Good luck Wayne - it will be easy once you get the knack!
