Here is my lacunosa which flowered for the first time the other day - it surprised me with its speediness! Do the flowers not last very long? Mine only lasted a few days.

Dmichael, you can have some of our rain - it seems we've had two weeks of summer and the rest has just been rain, rain, rain. Luckily I haven't been caught up with the floods but even after a month of relative dryness some people are only just getting everything sorted out here - but as a plus side everything's still looking very green.
