Default Unusually durable blooms - slcjewelersartwaimaoplum.jpg (1/1) [128K]

These blooms have been open for two months, now deeper in color, but quite
turgid and fragrant! I find that exceptional for a catt.

Very nice and I agree that two months is a very good time span. I only
recall one of my Catts being able to stay fresh for that long. It's a
very large lavender flower that doesn't look like it could begin to last
that long, but it does anyway.

Mmmmm! I can smell it from here Tom. I love the frilly petals as well.
