Hi Sempervirens, thanks. I know how it is like to lose a long post just before you finish it! Very frustrating!!!

I just checked on mine and one H.orientalis started blooming last year around the middle January, that is the one that gets the most sun, and the others followed from beginning February on.
Your Ivory Price is very beautiful and the buddha too (lol).
The flowers look very much like one I had last year, but sadly has died this year, I thinks by beetle larvae, as the plant withered in late september and I discovered all the roots were gone..
I forgot the name but will try to dig it up..
