Found this beauty in the woods, it stays green all winter (east TN)and
it goes down in the 20's and teens a lot with this staying green. Last
fall I had dug up one (I didn't dig it up until I saw I had more of them
in the woods close by.) I thought the one now in captivity was doing
well until today I took a walk in the woods to see how the others are.
Seems like the leaves on the captive one are severely stunted!
Otherwise looks healthy and getting ready to bloom. I am going to plant
it in the garden, I just didn't find the right spot yet. Looks like it
needs filtered light. Does well with some direct sunlight but not too
much. Here is a link to some pics:

Why didn't you plant it in an old soup tin? Poor thing is struggling
in that silly tiny plastic pot... don't you own a piece of ground...
at least plant it in an unglazed clay pot 4-6 times that size. Unless
you can afford a piece of ground or a proper container then leave
plants where they live. I truly hope you don't have any pets, you'd
abuse them too.
