    Ok then, this is my BLC Toshie Aoki 'Starburst' - the first flower that got broken off shortly after this photo. I have a second one about to bloom that I plan to take pictures of and post in the flowers section. It's SO yummy anyone would want a Catt! BTW, so far its been easy as pie, came blooming size and happily put up two spikes on two new growths since I got it last fall. I'm in love!

    Wow! Lovely blooms. I wish my catts bloom too someday. They just give new growth but no blooms.

    Thank you all very much. I'm very excited about it. I searched for this plant for such a long time and took very good care of it in the hopes of someday blooming it. I can't stop staring at it.
