Blooming Hybrid #1
Just now my fireplace and mantelpiece are covered in blooming phals, at the peak I counted 14 phals all in bloom there. Only 12 there now and some of those are starting to fade, but wow I've enjoyed them this year.
They are mostly NoID's and this is one of the ones I've enjoyed most. A NoID that I bought to have in my office, then I moved desk and I would have to put them on a collegues desk to get enough light and didn't think he would like that
So I brought it home and let the spike grow naturally without staking (I was staking the ones in the office so they didn't get in the way). I'm really glad I brought it home to enjoy these flowers every day

This years update of the fourteen on the fireplace mantle?
Are they still there? And bloomed again?
