I have never seen such a plant! Ours is small yet.

West Orange, NJ

Mine bloomed last night. I have had this plant forat least 15 years! This year is the first time it has bloomed. IT had 4 buds - 3 have bloomed, but I was away! This one started to open around 6 PM and was fully open by 9 PM . it was still open at 12:30 AM and sadly gone this morning. I took pictures but I'll have to get my husband to load it.
