I am thrilled

One of my blue capensis seedlings has bloomed. I started them in July, from seeds sent to me from South Africa.
 Here they are in July

They grew slow all summer. I repotted them and fed them. Then Sept came along with cool weather. I knew it was getting too cool for them to bloom. So I put them in a heated tub and put a window over it to make it a small greenhouse.

I'm thrilled for you Vickie.  It's very satisfying to grow from seed.  Hope it continues to do well for you.
