Default Ascofinetia Cherry Blossom, first blossoms

It took awhile but it finally put out one spike. Not bad for a frigid Maine winter!

In Erin Pot

Awww!!! How darling! I love it. What a pretty color. I am guessing this is just a bit larger then a regular neo?

It's just a bit smaller than a regular neo but may be due to cold growing conditions. No scent that I can detect.

Oh I love it. I have one, now I know what to look for. Mine shows no sign of a spike yet.
It's gorgous in the Erin pot, good blend of colors.

Thanks Dorothy, I can always depend on you, so glad to have you back! 99% of the time I have no idea what I'm doing and the other 1% is questionable!
