These are the first blooms. I bought this plant not knowing what the bloom would look like. I liked the name. I lived in France for two years from 1963--1965. I thought the name of the plant would be a gentil reminder of the time I spent there. Little did I know that I would fall in love with the blooms. Very delicate shade of blue and I love the serrated leaves.

I think Jesse was asking about leaves being shinny. I haven't done anything to these leaves except brush the soil from them when I repotted her. This plant looks healthy. It looked healthy when I bought her. Now, I am trying to figure out how to keep her healthy and keep the leaves shinning naturally.
