It is a miracle I have it at all. My father gave it to me. There were actually two. One pink and one white. I had no idea what they were. I just took the two dead looking dried up pieces and put them in a pot near the tomato garden. That pot sat there for at least three years and then one spring two plants pop up. Then they bloomed. I was absolutely flabbergasted. They were beautiful. The pink one died the the white one grew like a weed. When we built this home 11 years ago I moved a portion of it to the garden. It has prospered and right now I have about 5 plants total of this one. I treasure it because it was given to me by my father and it grew in spite of my neglect.
