Does such a paph exist yet?

Anyone here have any experience with ghost pepper plants? I was wondering if anyone can give any tips in zone 7a for growing outside then overwintering indoors? Growing outdoors is pretty straight forward. I'm curious about overwintering indoors. What are the general watering, light, humidity...

I got a division of this from LI Jane a while back. Nice bean leaf. I didn't realize that the flowers would point upwards. yodo no matsu (淀の松) 01 - 07.11.20 by Marco, on Flickr yodo no matsu (淀の松) 02 - 07.11.20 by Marco, on Flickr

A few months ago I got into haworthias. One of them are throwing off pups and I'm just trying to get ready for when the time comes. Interestingly enough, it seems like the plant has put all its efforts in growing the pups and not so much in growing the mother plant. There has been minimal...

First neo. opening. There is also a shunkyuden and yodo-no-matsu in progress. One of which came from Jane. I miss her. I haven't used my camera for close-ups in ages. Need to re-figure it out. This is 4 photos kept out of about 200. nishidemiyako (西出都) - 01 - 06.04.20 by Marco, on Flickr...

A few photos right after I went radio silent on this forum around Mid-2017. I was busy wedding planning and we did some traveling. Maria and I got married on 8/24/2017 @ 5:00pm. Just the right time to catch a beautiful sunset at the Big Island in Hawaii. The weather was perfect, barely a cloud...

One of my favorite oddballs. second and last photo are of the same bloom. there is another spike developing with 4 buds. It would be amazing if all 7 buds were opened at the same time. shunkyuden (春及殿) 02 - 04.13.17 by Marco, on Flickr shunkyuden (春及殿) 03 - 04.13.17 by Marco, on Flickr...

I purchased this one was from Robert Bedard around June 2015. I don't think he's been here in a quite while. This neo has almost doubled in size since 2015 and is my largest neo. Not the best blooming this year but the blooms are large and more spikes are on the way. The dime in the last photo...

Neo from Tom-DE. Easily one of my largest neos. There's also a second spike forming. However, this first spike might be faded by the time that one opens. I believe Tom sourced this neo from Seed Engei during the 2008 WOC in Miami. Thanks Tom for the wonderful neo... Cheers kishuryokufu...
