NBC Blooms Yet Again

  What? Four times, at least. Maybe five. Just this year. And here we go  again.

 The buds started again with September.  This photo was taken on 09/05.

 And by 09/09 it was set to open.

Which it did as soon as the sun set.

 There were clusters of flowers hidden among the leaves.

On 09/10 this bud had swollen to the point of opening as soon as it got dark.

 And here is that same bud a few hours later.

 Surely this is the most gorgeous flower I have. The intricacy and detail amazes me every time I see it.

 With shorter days and colder weather ahead, surely it is finished for this year?
