No harm done

Remember my ghost bud of a couple of weeks ago?

Well, it appears that the extended blanching in the basement didn't hurt.
The stem and leaves started greening up as soon as the plant got some sunlight.
The bud filled out and became four lovely flowers over the weekend.
I love that the flower is so unabashed about flashing its parts. You can't really call these stamens and pistil "privates."

    It's almost like magic really must get at least a few patio pots going

    Wow it did great! I have mine at work still (post bloom). Trying to decide if I should bring it home and plant it in the garden or just leave it at work.
