My first flower

10 years ago

After 2 + years I finally got my first flower. Who would guess in Wisconsin, in January, and the temp literally 20 below earlier in the week when it was opening. Its a NOID labeled as red, and the fragrance is strong coconut and floral or suntanlotion-ish.
This is with flash.

How exciting!!! Congratulations! Sometimes they just do whatever the heck they please, don't they?! Haha! As Mike mentioned, if it blooms in hot weather it may actually be red and look like a totally different flower! Keep up the good work!

Thank you everyone, hopefully I'll have more this summer. This was the family before they came in for the winter.
