They bloomed their little hearts out for months.... Out of about 6, only 2 are slow growers, so far, but are firm and green with lots of roots. Of course, the only thing is you can't be sure of the variety as they aren't labeled like what you would buy from a supplier, but it's always fun to get with the others here and try to guess which one it is! The one pictured is the first one I rescued from HD, also have solid red ones from my Mom that look alot like Red Lion. I haven't purchased any white ones, just the reds. Mine cost $2.50 and $3, so for a little investment, you get a lot of fun! |
