Three more "First Bloom" pics.

I forgot to post this one, last week. I wanted to confirm it's identity first, and did. Also got a correction of the spelling of it's name.



This is Ploi Dang. It is one of my imports from Thailand. Nice tropical and it is vaviporous, to boot. (I love those!)




Another vaviporous tropical, Key Largo. Did I mention I loved vavips?




Last but not least, Albert Greenburg. I've had this one in the distant past, but I don't think it grew and bloomed as fast as this one did. In fact, it came with a rather large tuber and I thought I might have taken it off too soon, but appearantly not! A second plant will likely be taken from that same tuber sometime next week. I may even "milk it" for a few more, but will probably chicken out and plant it with the waterlily on plant number 4 or so.

Those are really nice "first blooms" Mike. I also like viviporous lilies because their formation of plantlets from the nodes on the pads is fascinating.
