Wow! Very well deserved.

Thank you. I appreciate it.

It’s absolutely splendid. I’m prejudiced against hybrids but cannot resist congratulating you, especially given the triumph of overcoming the mishap. I assume you will take it in again judging when it next bursts forth.

That's so nice of you, thank you! I can't imagine it topping this first bloom but I guess time will tell. One thing for sure is that I will NEVER touch one of the petals when it blooms again
