yes Annette - it's a hardy. at this point in time, any blooms i post will be hardies. i am thinking of trying a tropical or two again next year - maybe add some sort of aquarium heater to a tub or one of those thermoplanters.
the other bud coming up is moondance. there are no more for andreana at the moment. hopefully that will change soon as our temps are beginning to warm back up.
your assessment of the 1st and last photos is exactly what i thought. and then the middle one shows some details that the other 2 don't quite capture. just hope no one is too bored by the similarity of them. glad i'm not the only one that can't quite decide!
