Beautiful! Love the deep colour.

Only one photo showing. There's a red "X" underneath the top photo (probably indicating that there should be 2 photos).

I see it now. Thanks. Nice plant!

Really beautiful. I want one of this, but here in Europe is quite hard to find.

no photos for me.
OK, now it works. how are you going to store it when it goes deciduous?

How are you going to store it when it goes deciduous?

I haven't decided. Anyone have any preferences?

These are awesome. I just let mine sit in the pot with no watering until new sprouts start up in the Spring.

I previously put my pots in a baggie w/ a spray of water until they came back, since I lost my xanthocheila this spring I might take them out of the media before bagging them up.

Wonderful color!

I accidentally set a pot aside for a few months and almost threw it out; it was bone dry but completely shaded and cool, and when I noticed the sprouts and watered it was fine
Nice color

Thank you all! I believe I will just leave it in the pot and withhold watering it for the winter dormancy.
