Although I am sure it is not the best blooming, it is the first blooming for me after 4 years of growing. The award picture has a much darker and symmetrical pouch. I am guessing temperature played a role in the difference. This flower developed during a long heat wave. The next blooming will tell. As you can see, growing it was not been the problem. Just the whole blooming thing...
