Sorry for some of the not-so-great closeups. I don't have a macro lense and these were the best I could get.

Two day old inflorescence:

Congratulations, Phil!

I have a question on this specimen of yours:

How long did it take for your plant to flower, since planting?

I planted this one on 4/7 and I found the immature inflorescence on 8/23 so that's approximately four and a half months. I got the plants you see there as a bunch though, not a single plant.
