Almost 2 months ago, I posted the first picture, and the long list of errors and newbie mistakes I made since getting her back in April this year, leading up to her sad appearance at the time. Lots of comments mentioned it being too big of a pot, but that she just needed time now. A few weeks after, I decided, one last time, to repot her (5th time), into a smaller, self watering planter, with fertilizer courtesy of my mealworms, and some nice well draining soil mixture.

The budding pics are from at least 2-3 weeks ago, the flowering ones from just yesterday. Failures aside, my beautiful Lillian is blossoming (pun intended), into this gorgeous beauty she was meant to be.
