Not sure if I've ever seen a flatter bloom!

That is a beautiful flower - so pristine looking! Is it a large flower?

It looks like it fell face down! I really like it... it's very different from most hippies. Some great potential for creating new crosses! -Tina

It is huge. When it gets light I'll go measure it. I wasn't sure what to expect, but agree that it's a blank canvas for crossing!

It's 8 and 1/2 inches straight across. Like vanilla ice cream, white blooms don't distract you with added "stuff". Don't get me wrong, I love "stuff"...but a nice white bloom is a pleasure.
