In Ft. Lauderdale, your flower might make it through winter without coming inside. Mine will have to be brought inside to stay warm. They are strange looking flowers, aren't they?
My two spottings of this same kind of Hugs & Kisses flower. Day 1 - crazy vibrant colors and soft flowers: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6434401 12 hours later - faded flower and crepe paper flower: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6604493
