My First Flower!

Check it out, FIRST EVER FLOWER to bloom in my planted tank. I got this Annubias Coffeeola when it had three or four leaves and was probably 4 inches tall. It now stands over 10" and just got its first flower, my most rewarding experience so far in keeping planted tanks! Hope you all enjoy!

Re: My First Flower!

Pretty! Looks like a calla lily, is it in the same family?
