Such beautiful photos!

Jordan, I am impressed with your Night Runner - it's really taking off and the staking is allowing it to show off better.

Heavy Metal bloomed for the first time today.  I plan to cross it to Moonstruck. It should bloom in a few days.  Smiley

Patrick, thanks for the info on Cashmere Yellow. I've been working on yellow flowers the last 2 years and there's going to be more of them soon. For many years Heaven Scent was the favorite yellow based on sales and I didn't do enough to develop more yellows. Anyway, I was wondering how big Cashmere Yellow bloomed outside of our greenhouse and 7 to 9 inches is turning out to be the range.

Laura, nice photos of Heavy Metal. That big dark eye sure came through this time. A cross of it with Moonstruck could easily keep the eye, since this is more or less a backcross with Rainbow Christi, parent of Heavy Metal. A bigger version of Heavy Metal or a brighter version of Moonstruck would be very nice to see!

Thanks, Charlie!  My Night Runner took awhile to get going, but now it's full of buds and has been blooming with 7" flowers.  Can't wait until this one gets taller.  The staking up of the bush helps the flower bloom in a more visible spot, too, considering this cv likes to flop, flowers included.

Much better color on my Cosmic Gold today. Didn't get out of the 80's today.

Doll, you caught Georgia's Thunder perfectly, showing the odd way the petals open at times. Good color on the Cosmic Gold. It does show best when conditions are milder, better color and great form then.

Wow, Chris, a scented Heaven's Scent! Doesn't happen all that often... Nice color on the Burnt Saffron. Didn't I see on the news that Denver had just about the hottest temp around a day or 2 ago? Didn't hurt your flowers any, looks like.
