It is always the case that the plants that we are most anxious to see open takes the longest.
This is the second ITOH that I bought 3 years ago, and have been waiting a long time for it to bloom. I am leaving on vacation April 17th and was afraid that it would not open by then, and it would be totally gone by the time I came back in 3 weeks. I was very pleased today when I was greeted by this in the morning
It is supposed to be First Arrival, which it obviously is not, but I don't mind. The yellow would do nicely here. Hopefully when it is fully open, someone will recognize it.
