If you could get more size but the same colors, that would be something to behold.  Those colors are really cool, its really fun when there is something new staring you in the face just like this one.  It really isnt like any other CV I have seen.

Seems like that pairing of BTBW and April showers has yielded some interesting offspring to say the least.  I am really liking the patterns BTBW gives its offspring, this is one I want to start using soon Smiley

I also forgot to ask if that CCacao x Nightrunner seedling had those really cool leaves that other CCacao seedlings are showing. 

Pinot noir looks more like a fig tree than a hibiscus! It is already one of my favorites and I haven't seen it bloom yet Smiley

I was thinking a bit more about it and I think snow capped mountain should be a bigger bloom. 

Seeing as April Showers gave rise to this beauty how about Powdered Snow or Frosty Morning.

Sorry I really like thinking of names for these new seedlings. Soon hopefully I will be able to have some named ones of my own.  Smiley

The CCacao x Nightrunner seedling does have very cool leaves so far. I hope it doesn't change. Here's a slightly wider view photo of this one in which the leaves are a little more visible.

When I see that little blue seedling, all I think of is a really great cupcake... But the speckled pattern the blue gives way to the white reminds me of the foamy spray from an ocean wave.  I really want to think of a great name for it, but the red is throwing me off.  If I say something that has to do with the ocean, the red may be a bouy?  or a jellyfish.

nope, nothing clever yet.

It is funny what we see when we look at the blue seedling. I see the colors of our flag. Too bad Star Spangled Banner is already taken. Old Glory?

Very inventive, everybody! Ocean Spray is excellent. I'm already feeling the the naming challenge for this fall growing bigger by the day and all help is appreciated.

What a beautiful and unique bloom.  You can add my name to that waiting list as well.
Maybe by the time it's available I'll have room for it.   Wink

A few hot days followed by a couple of mild days brought out a bunch of blooms in the seedling area. Below are some of the more promising ones.
