I now post on ...
billstearman.com
This site remains and mostly documents my life as a farmer. I now identify as a quilt maker.
... ... Here, in my own quiet little space on the web ... I'll share my sheepish thoughts ... and some of my quilts ... with the world ... or at least with anyone who is interested ... :-)
How very beautiful Bill. I looked up Karen's suggestion and it's common name is Queen of the Night...how absolutely perfect, your very own Colette moment (The Vagabond). A decent site:
Tonight ... it opened ... :-)
Seems to be a 'night blooming' something ... :-)
It is very beautiful ... and VERY fragrant ... and it makes me smile.

Thank you for sharing this with us. It is beautiful
Very beautiful! Good thing you got to see it open before your trip. Hoping you get more blooms now that you've got it going. :-)
