Hens and Chicks Part 2

Day 3
Day 4

I was doing some research only to find out that this event happens when the Hens become mature, they flower out like this then die. I guess that is their way of making room for the Chicks, and also providing nourishment for them...That kind of saddened me when I read that. I guess I will have to wait and see as the Chicks mature into Hens if this event will happen again. What maybe 2 or more years? Well, I am enjoying watching these pretty flowers as they bloom.
