I put mine on the east side of my house in North Texas. It isn\'t totally humid but it sure is hot. They bloomed this year.

I was told they probably wouldn\'t but in Dallas where it rains more and is more humid they get big and bloom every year.

Food and water. Feed now for next year\'s blooms, trying to remember what i used, I think some epsom salts and some azalea food and a bunch of coffee grounds, and maybe some cottonseed meal. In 2017. And they were put in the ground fall 2016. they finally bloomed April 2018. one bloom per plant.

I dug up 5 from near a foundation in Arlington TX, a single stem on each.
