With petaloids, even! Probably due to use of the booster. Very pretty flower!

Acapulco Gold, Pina Colada, and Lady Cilento from today.  Group shot sun is too bright, I should have taken it earlier in the morning.  Also Gwen Mary.  Individual shots came out better. I'm having much better success growing them outside this summer so will expand on it next year.

These are the three that got me started into this wonderful addiction back in 2004: Erin Rachael, Aztec Sun, and Tamibon.  I let Tamibon get a little too dry so bloom never opened completely.

Nice Dave!  Vin B is gorgeous!  I'm on the list for a Vin Extraordinare; seeing your Vin B makes me want one of those too. 


Night Runner today, growing into a nice little bush with some staking up.

Thanks Doll and Jordan. I love this one and hope to get Vin Extraordinaire too.  I better make sure I'm on the list for it.

Jordan your Night Runner is gorgeous.  I just lost mine, it never really got going so am hoping Charlie will have some more coming so I can give it another try, hopefully in the 6" size this time.
