TB miracle bloom

Bloom where I thought there was no hope.  This is one of a group of 
seedlings I call 'my Schreiner Blues'.  They'd been allowed to grow into a 
tangled mess of rhizomes and late last summer I ripped them up and moved 
them to the field by the house and out of the yard.  The grasshoppers 
promptly kept any growth eaten off to the ground.  Then, with a warm winter 
under drought conditions, the rabbits kept them eaten down to nubs until 
there was finally something else green for them to eat.  I didn't expect any 
blooms, but some are blooming in spite of everything.  There's so much 
that's not good this year, but the blooms on these are the most surprising.
