Yes still blooming. This pic is a new one taken either last week or at the weekend (can't quite remember). Since then the older of the two flowers has dropped and it is back to just one flower. There looks to be another bud forming behind the current flower

I think the pic you remember is a portrait one with just one flower. I was determined to try and get one with two on and last week it helped by holding two healthy looking flowers at the same time for a few days.

Just a warning, it generally only has one healthy flower at once. As one is opening the previous is fading. I was quite suprised when that didn't happen this time.

I still recomend you get one... just make sure it's the pink version as some of them are spotty on the pouch (like on the petals) and I don't want you to be disapointed. This one had (pink) on the tag and when I bought it I saw another which was the spotty one (on a different stall at a show).

I didn't meant to divert this thread though.

I was hoping that by showing my entry others would show their entry on this thread like everyone did last year. I loved looking through the entries before the voting thread began.

[Call_Me_Bob]

i dont know which one im entering! so ill post it here after i i sumbit it. lol

[RosieC]

I think quite a few people are still trying to decide. Hopefully there will be a rush of good entries once everyone has.
