Some of you may remember the near death plants I rescued from my son last winter. This is one I was really hoping would make it. Imagine my surprise when it presented me with a single flower 6 months later!

Here is the before picture from January. The plant itself is still pretty tough looking but most of the sunburned leaves have since dropped.



Here it is today!

The 'after' one is definitely prettier.

Thanks guys! It was definitely worth the extra TLC. My son was over yesterday and I showed it to him. I've never seen such a big grin on that child. I told him he could have the rest of his plants back whenever he wanted......except for this one. It's my payment for saving them all.
