Default First Bloom after 10 Year Wait
This V. sanderiana 'alba' was purchased as a seedling in 1999 from the late Roy Fukumura on Maui. The plant is blooming for the first time. The 10 year wait has been worth it. The flowers are very nicely shaped (flat and round). The inflorescence has 12 flowers.
