Every day--I would go outside and see the progress of the buds. There are three of them.
I took pictures every week to see the progress...

The buds swelled and swelled--and grew the long "necks" as the bud progressed.

Yesterday--I saw the bud had swollen quite a bit--and the pointed tips of the bud
looked like they were going to open the next day.

SO! Today was the day to celebrate this event....

I will post a couple of pictures. Can anyone give me the name of this Epi??? Please!
Thanks--Gita
