I couldn't believe it when I recently saw a stem with two buds on my Green Goddess, they have both opened now. The bulb is in the original pot I put it in, it had flowered in mid to late March. In June I put it in a semi-shaded greenhouse which always has good ventilation, i.e. door open and panes missing! I haven't given it any food but it is in my organic compost. Besides all that, we had a very cold summer (often only14-16C or around high 50's to just over 60F) with only a short warm spell from late July and intermittently (briefly) since.

The flower looks closer to a species this time, I like it!
