Francine this one is for you, and for anyone else who was curious but didn't ask. I took the first photo on January 25th and the last one on the 28th.

The color of this thing was so beautiful! It really brightened up my January. After the bloom died I cut back the stalk and it grew some leaves. It now sits in the back yard being neglected for the summer once again. Oh, and it never did tip over.
