A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Gardener's Chat Blooming Fine #7

It has been growing at least an inch a day---Now a second leaf has begun growing & is about 5 inches long. still no sign of a flower stalk---- but I guess I am still a few weeks out yet---if it had not of all died out & had to regrow, I was not due to see flowers until the end of January--so now I guess we are talking about some time in february. But as the flowers are red with white stripes, I guess the timing is appropriate.

That isnt the part that blooms yet> mine is leaves an no bloom stuff yet.. That part is round which blooms.

thanks barb, but I understand that---which is why I am saying no bloom stalk---But as I say it is early yet---I hope...

I just went & re-read the box:

it says on the box that it will bloom in 8 to 10 weeks. and if my math is right--it will only be 4 weeks this coming sunday (the 22nd)

I feel better now that I have read the box.

Sheri: That pot is 2 times the size of the pot that was sent with the bulb.
