Hi All, I had to go to Phoenix for awhile so I moved everyone in because the nights are in the low 50's so now I'm trying to decide where they are all going to live. Got home to finally find the blooms opening! However, there were three half-opened ones on the floor. Soil tests moist enough and it has lots of light (when the sun shines-unlike today) so don't know what that's all about. So now I know what color at last that Mom and all her babies are! Thank you for telling me to be patient and for sharing your experiences. I see a couple more tiny inflo's coming even though it never got very warm this summer. Will see what happens. Oh, and it smells wonderful!
