For the first time

Phoenix, AZ(Zone 9b)

For a long time I've been trying to grow tuberoses, my grandma favorite flower.
Most of the time they would not even come out and the couple of times they did, they did nothing.
This one little tuber not only did come out , but as you will see it is ready to bloom.
That's for you mamaia.

That's great Marie ! What are the chances that after all those years , both of us are able to get them not only to grow but to bloom ?

are they Mexican tuberose or the standard non-indigenous tuberose?

If I remember correctly, it is the Mexican one.
I will take pictures today. I think it opened.
