I've been nurturing this one for almost two years. It came to me in sorry condition and this is the first time I've gotten a bloom from it. It didn't quite open all the way and I think it's rather small...but it gives me hope for the next time

She's beautiful Sue and don't worry about the small bloom. I'm sure she'll surprise you next year.
