“And I have them, about two hundred ... There are no special problems. I water under the root, feed once a month, in winter, I illuminate with lamps.

We call this flower the Decembrist. Despite the fact that experts do not classify it as a capricious plant, according to the experience of many of my friends, it is quite sensitive to any adverse effects. It got its name because it blooms in winter, in December.

In addition to winter time, against the background of other flowers, it is gray and inconspicuous, and during flowering, the whole attitude towards it is manifested: if there was good care, the Decembrist will bloom profusely, with beautiful buds, if the care was bad, one or two pale flowers will come out.
