Yes.

Ok thank you! Any idea how much foliage grows before the flower actually shows signs of a bloom?

It will send up a very tall stem - 3-6 feet. Then it will bloom. May not be until next year.

Ok great, thank you! The foliage on three of the ones I have seem normal size to me, and then there is the one I posted, it is like a magic, giant flower! I can't imagine how huge it is going to end up.
