David your garden is looking killer!  What a splendid set up you have going there.

Your bloom is very pretty - I'm thinking that is Cosmic Gold instead of Acapulco Gold.  Coincidentally I might have my first Cosmic Gold bloom tomorrow to compare to.  Finally after 10 months of waiting...

Thanks Charlie!  That MBH photo was taken using my new wide angle lens.  Just was having some fun with it.

Lynette,  I have Gabriel in the full sun.  Gets about an hour of early early morning sun, then a break for an hour, then sun till about 6.  So about 8 hours.

Wow David Z that is some wild form on your Night Runner.  Lots of excitement there - thanks for sharing!

Today I finally got my first Cosmic Gold bloom ever and the form and colors are very impressive.  Also Rudolph is a real gem, the form and striping is so precise.  That really appeals to my tastes...

Sea of Tranquility 2nd day = that is when it is at it's best, fantastic form!

Deb lovely blooms.  Those are some relaxed looking blooms happy to be indoors.  Nice!!!

Today's blooms...
Late afternoon 1st day for Melon Melange seems to be the prettiest time for this CV's blooms

Cosmic Gold 2nd day really holds it's form very well

Something different for Sea of Tranquility

Rudolph day 2 great form and now more orangy

Picante is just gorgeous, early morning & early evening for comparison
