I was about to start a thread devoted to the fasciated (just learned that term) scape on Cosmic Struggle but while trying to see how to do that I discovered this thread. I bought this as a decent sized plant around late July of last year and had a few blooms. It's from Jewel Grocery store, where I've gotten some very nice varieties in the last few years. I'm attaching the first bloom of this season (on a normal scape) and also views of the huge scape that has nearly 40 total buds! I have a feeling that the buds that do manage to open will get in the way of each other.
