John, AWESOME display. Wow.
Pete, by coincidence I have a bud at present on my Canarina canariensis as well, but I'm in the southern hemisphere. Very early this year as many things are confused. Just been put into a bigger pot, so I am hoping for more than the usual one or two flowers I get..... hopefully with it being so early I'll get a good display, particularly given it now has food and better mix.
