My first flower opened August 24. What a thrill! I hardly slept and didn't want to go to work. Several more flowers were almost as exciting. |

Then Hurricane Isabel hit us. Even with the top of the power pole at the end of my driveway broken off, we still had power for a while. The pond was a mess but the Victoria was OK. | ||||||||||||||

The last flower opened September 24. It not only opened the second night, it was still open the third and even the fourth day. This often happens when the weather is cooling off. We are really happy you had the extra enjoyment of your finale! |

Will I do this adventure again? I guess we will have to wait until 2004 :) Alan Montour, 10/7/03 - A very sad Victoria Addict - frost will soon take "Ms. K" away. |
