Anticipating blooms

Cute sed japonica! Mine is not variegated. Has yours bloomed? Mine seemed to love getting into s/h and flowered for the first time shortly after getting into s/h.

Let me tell you an embarrassing story: this is really the second one I've had - like that little emoticon indicates in the :-) tab, the one that says, "oops, I broke off the spike", that applies to me.... However I sheared off the entire top of the plant from the stem...yeah, REALLY, and right before it was getting ready to bloom. I WAS JUST SICK. Being the addict and idiot that I am, refusing to be defeated, I bought ANOTHER ONE EXACTLY LIKE THE OTHER EXCEPT BIGGER - and like of all of us growers, I talked to it when I put it in the greenhouse, promising that I would treat it with respect and care. It's doing well, putting out new roots and leaves, but hasn't bloomed - I've only had it for about three months. SO THERE'S MY STORY
