Firestorm is a rapid increaser with good bloom habits early in April. Makes a nice clump. Here I've shown it close-up.

This is one of three SDB's to bloom first in 2006. The other two: Add It up & Jazzamatazz. All SDB's look healthy and many are loaded with buds. (Note to self: This Journal provides a photo record to see IF [and how much] my photography skills have improved/worsened over the previous year.)
