I guess I'll take satisfaction in getting a plant to bloom indoors.
This turned out to be a 'Shock and Awe' scenario. Huge build up with great expectations and excitement from all the adverising.
Ehhhh - it's ok but unfortunately, doesn't live up to the hype and photos. I realize it's indoors in cool temps. NOW - I'm wondering if I should rattle cages at Valleygrow who sold and labeled this as Insignis Pink. Looks like a garden variety, nondescript white to me. It does have a strange perfume if you bury your nose but not the wafting clouds of aroma I'm expecting.... in the summer I guess. :)
