Mad Cow expressed precisely :

It's alive and flowering so presumably happy, and it's reassuring to
know even you can't manage a perfect specimen every time.
Especially as I can't grow them at all!

Well I water them and feed them occasionally, they're pretty hardy
plants, they were my mother's pride and joy, I'm not too sure she'd be
happy with me for not taking better care of them. :-)
