It is lovely ,difficult to believe how rare and expensive these were 30 years ago and of course there was nothing like the range of colours or sizes we are offered now .

Lovely , I have or should I say had one with lots of buds almost in flower when a certain person broke it off , I'm not very happy with him :o(

Bjs, I can pick one up for a song at the local supermarkets. Still those are as nice as the more pricey ones at the specialty shops. It's hard to believe they were once rare. I guess the so called "good ole days" weren't all that good.

Sorry to hear that Amy. I hope it was an accident that the flowers were broken off.

I love it! Mine hasn't flowered yet. It's very common here in San Diego. I usually put mine outside until it flowers.

Thanks Junna

All of mine are either just coming into flower now or sending up flower spikes. I'll have blooms at least through April.
