Wow Charlie that sure is a dark version of SOT.  My favorite thing about this one is that the second day of the bloom is when I find it to be at it's best.  Mine tend to last for 2-3 days though it is under the dappled shade of my plumeria so that helps a lot.

Here is a pic of mine as of this morning.  It is now getting lots of buds and should be blooming in a few weeks hopefully.  It looks great and is growing very nicely.  Funny how a few months ago it didn't want much of any water and now it is very happy to get watered almost daily.  I have found this to be true with most of my plants so I have to really pay attention to when they make this change...

Denise we'll be posting bloom pics before we know it - can't wait!

Denise that is a nice bloom - your small plant just shows how this CV likes to bloom a lot. 

Mine has been quite a slow grower so far but I really wonder if I have yet to figure out what the sweet spot for SOT is here in my garden.  One thing for sure it likes to keep on budding/blooming consistently.  Also I love how every bloom is different and has it's own personality - never know what to expect with each one.

The following sequence of shots shows how SOT really reflexes a lot more than your average bloom and then bounces back with a lighter look the next day.  A lot of action to enjoy for 3 days per bloom.
