    1. Thank you! I'm so glad I've been checking every day and could predict the "opening" in time :). (It doesn't smell of anything, as far as I can tell)

    1. Cherry blossoms indeed, coming out of a potato, haha. :D It belongs on that list, very nice plant. Now I'll be waiting for the ssp. quinaria flowers, they should be pink.
