Lovely Rainbow Sherbert John, its one of my favourites and mainly due to the very strong color, its just so bright.
Cream De Cacao today which is really growing on me, I like it as much for the bush as anything else, its just so lush and adds lovely greenery to my garden, a lightly pruned Bridal Path and of many Dragons Breath.

Deb I never anticipated the potential of buying cases of sunglasses for the Hollywood hibs as part of the cost of growing these beautiful plants but if things keep going this way....Your blooms are of such nice form Deb, fantastic results.
David I go crazy every time I see your Bridal Path shots - for me very special. It is still my ATF though mine has been and continues to be a challenge. I fed my plants for the first time in over two months on Tuesday and by yesterday it had lots of yellow leaves. All my other plants no problem. I think I'll go Deb's route and put a pic of yours by mine to show it what it needs to do this year.
Well Prosperity continues it's amazing show...every bloom it produces is just wonderful! And check out the ridiculous spring growth - explosive just as I was hoping for.

John the colors on your Rainbow Sherbet are just magnificent. Mine are still mostly winterized with white and pale pink eyes.

Deb, your Cindy's Heart looks amazing. I don't think mine has ever had a pinkish hue on the edges.
Darren, I hope my Prosperity blooms will be as vibrant as yours.
One last one for today.

Darren your High Voltage looks so different than the norm, truthfully I would never have guessed it was HV and looks so different than mine today and others I have seen.
If you look at my photo and then John's above you will see what I mean.

David, the temps in LA are much cooler than what we have. In Houston it is getting to the mid eighties every day now. I'm sure that has a lot to do with it.

Yes, my mistake and I often forget that, does explain why your Houston Hibs look so similar to mine mind. Wow!!! What a cracker that Sunshower is. |
