Nicole. I did threaten her and I said many things to her in the past few years. She was just determined to take her own sweet time.. But, she is pretty!!

Hi Chuy!! Thank you as always. So nice...

Hi Roxanne. I have waited a long time for this one. I bought her from JJ.s three years ago. I was about ready to put her in the corner.. Lol!! The blooms are very thick and I had one in a vase for three days and it is still beautiful. The fragrance isn't much.. I can hardly detect any scent. ;-(. But the beauty is in her coloration.. That makes me happy.

Thank you Mark!!! mahalo!!!

Texas... Thank you as well...

Lonnie.. Thank you. I am Glad you were safe and sound this day twelve years ago...

Have a wonderful day...

I love this bloom and I'm glad you didn't throw her out for not blooming. She was definitely worth the wait.

HI Joan!! She was worth the wait. Only three years tho!! Lol, I didn't even really look at her anymore thinking she was never going to produce. Then, VOILA!! Thank you so much. I also wanted to Thank you for that sweet message on the 9-11 thread. That really touched me. mahalo!!

Thanks Lynn!!! It is a really pretty bloom, not much fragrance tho.. But she is a beauty!!! I was impressed at how long the blooms stayed fresh in a vase inside. They were the longest blooms to last over all of the other blooms I bring inside. Amazing...

Simi.. Mahalo!!!
