Dad's Flower

This plant has been a part of our family for over 200 years. My Grandmother started it at her house from a plant at her Mother's. My Dad took cuttings from her plant in 1940 and planted at my parents' first home and again in 1955 when they moved. My Sister brought me cuttings several years ago. My Dad kept a bloom in his pocket during the blooming season as well as putting a bloom in my car each time I would leave after a visit.
