A blossfeldiana 4th -- update w/ funny pic!

Post by Steve Johnson »

Have you seen this yet? Well, whether you have or not, today was the day for the best display coming from my Mamm blossfeldiana since I saw its first flowers 2 years ago:

And of course there has to be a bud holding out on me -- I think the silly thing is actually going :P :

Image

My work schedule precludes being able to see all 6 flowers firing tomorrow, but I'll certainly take this -- the blossfeldiana goes :D :

Image

Cheers, everyone!

I find that nature usually does not cooperate with me. Great display, nevertheless!

Mamm blossfeldiana blooms at a fairly young age, so if that's what you have, I'm thinking 2-3 more years on yours. They're slow growers, so be patient!
