yay!  Isn't it odd.  I didn't know they flowered until my grandads one did a couple of years back.  I wonder how many people grow them and never see them flower as they are right in the compost, if you dont' look closely, you would never see them!

Ours flowers every year but it is a piece of a 40 year old plant!

The flowers are a lovely deep purple, but they are very easy to miss, when you find one it is a good surprise!
