I let out the biggest gasp when I saw this. I have waited almost 3 years to see this. Any idea on how long it will be until it blooms? The bud is about the size of a nickle, maybe a bit bigger. I can not believe I didnt see it when I gave them a shower a couple days ago. I was told by the wonderful sender, that it is fragrant. I have 3 different kinds, tho they all look the same to me LOL. Heck I dont even know if it's an Epi, or a night blooming cirrus, or are they the same?
It's in our bedroom, so Im sure not to miss the smell. I was just contemplating putting them outside, as they have taken up almost 4 feet of our counter, and a new branch/leaf(?) has popped straight up at about 4 feet also. I think I will keep them right where they are.
