Thanks!

MGCH's first bud looks like it might be opening now!

GT, didn't I get a PP from you? I've been wondering what this little pink hardy was. I've been bad with tags lately.... {:-P;;

Kat, have you to thank for most of the great lilies in the pond! Glad I could provide a little space for the nightbloomer...it's the least I can do!! :)

Zoe, I live outside of Dallas, about 10 miles from Kat.

We have estimated it around 6000 gallons. About 15x20' and variable depth. Still need to install stone around the perimeter, but off to a good start.

Yes, you did  :D And I was wondering if it made it and how it was doing...When I saw your pics I saw a very familiar bloom  ;D
I'm glad it is big enough that it is blooming for you now  O0
