No blooms to date but I have been growing them for less then a yr.  I can't be 100% positive on the species because I orig got it off an auction website but this is what I bought it as and it seems about right.

I have this one. Mine is not as large and I still have it in a container. I received it as a trade some time ago and neglected it and almost lost it. But its growing like gangbusters now that I am taking care of it again
