This beauty decided to finally grace us this morning. There's a story here: I bought it for 10 cents in a close-out bin in a grocery store checkout line in April. It was far too late to sink it and I thought it wouldn't come up, but it finally did. And then I thought, well, but it won't bloom, but it eventually has. It's not the blue-black color advertized on the package, of course, but I didn't expect it to be, and it's perfect as it is, in red...
