A thing of beauty...



Isn't it gorgeous? I love how quickly these things bloom! When I left for work on Friday morning, I could see the 4 buds ready to blossom, and by the time I came home that night, which was around 10:30, two of the buds had completely opened. Cousin P, who had the day off, said she had fun watching them bloom over the course of the day. I got to watch the other 2 buds open up on Saturday. TC did a lovely job of splinting it, don't you think? The blossoms are so heavy that the stem was bending over to the ground by Saturday afternoon. Nothing a couple of wooden spoons, a little packing tape and some leftover yarn can't fix, though :)
