David sure gets some interesting color changes, doesn't he? Sort of the opposite of Farmer D's cold weather outdoor colors - these being unusual heat color changes. David, that Think Pink photo you posted recently was almost unidentifiable as the pink almost totally disappeared. It kept enough to still be pretty, though.

This mystery bloom - don't know, Stolen Kiss maybe. Or could be Pocahontas if the colors are bleached out by the heat. Can't wait to find out!

Maybe i should have explained that the photo shows its opening colour, it later reverted to its normal colour once the sun had shone on it, and as the photo shows its Pineapple Sundae, strange but I have never seen this happen before.

In fact the bloom turned into a beauty, this is one of of my best performing cv's [ mind you nothing compares to Hot Pepper as a sun lover], P Sundae just loves the hot sun, there is a slight bit of sunburn on one leaf but you have to concider what would happen to some cv's in the same unshaded spot in the garden, every leaf would shrivel and look like a prune in 15 minutes, difficult to comprehend but the sun can be incredibly fierce here.
