Patrick, WOW! What a beauty!!
Darren, Hal, Denise, so glad your hibiscus made it without any damage. All looks good.
Erny, You should give Night Runner a try. Totally worth the messy bush. And Charlie, correction. Three bamboo stakes and many lines of string tying the branches up! LOL!! Sure is a sloppy bush, but wow. I was so happy with the bloom. haha

Kristen, I am just starting to construct a wish list and the only reason Night Runner won't head the list is that it has to be alphabetical. The main problem is trying to keep the list down to a manageable size. Everytime Darren posts some of his great pictures I want to add several more to the list.

Patrick, that is a beauty. Looks big, too. Perhaps Acapulco Gold as pollen parent?

WOW! All you guys have such beautiful blooms... I can't wait to get more hibiscus!! I'm going to have to add Night Runner to my wish list too... simply amazing.
I'll just post my humble little Bon Temps for now... can't wait until my four inchers get big enough to bloom! I guess they look okay so far!

Patrick, your seedling is beautiful. I was thinking Rainbow Sherbert might be one of the parents.

Doll, I agree it could be Rainbow Sherbet. The other possibility that comes to mind is Cosmic Gold because it passes that type of eye to its offspring. Saffron passes white eyes, too, but this big type of eye is usually Cosmic Gold.

Ernest I know what you mean about Darren's pics inspiring additions to your wish list. In fact not only his pics, that goes for many other forum member's pics as well. I've purchased or added several plants to my wish list for this reason. Too many to list. Thanks guys. lol
Kristen your Night Runner bloom is incredible. I had one that died after only a few months and never got a flower. I can live with the bad bush if I can just get it to grow and bloom. Maybe I'll give it another try if I'm lucky enough to get one.
Charlie are these soon to be available Night Runners own root or grafted?
Angela, nothing humble about your Bon Temps bloom. What bright rich color!
Patrick I concur with the others, your seedling is gorgeous.

I agree Charlie, Cosmic Gold was my first guess as well. It is a another beauty to add to the Big and Bright category!

Hi Angela, Wow if that is Bon Temps that is really surprising. The colors and layers of colors are so different. I wonder if it is.... What does anyone else think? Farmer D |

Darren I see what you are referring to. There are some differences. Oh what a gorgeous bloom. If it isn't Bon Temps I'd love to know the identity.
