Yep, those two varieties have flowers in their "urns" , but the flowers are not very interesting, at least to me. Those neon colors are what makes these plants pop. All these pictures were taken 4-6 weeks ago. Their coloration is much more advanced now. Because I have so many of these two varieties, I will have color-change going on for at least another year. The nice thing is seeing all those pups growing. Some of the "mother" plants have pups that are almost as large as she is and have filled a 6" pot. I think the reason I have so many pups, something rarely found in big-box store plants, is the fact that I don't force growth/blooms on my plants. They grow at their normal rate and thus have time for pup-formation. At least that's my opinion.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
