Yep that Thunder Egg is such a unique bloom - never could have imagined such a look for a flower. Mesmerizing...great stuff Chris and Charlie!
Nice Black Dream twins today at the in-laws. Also second bloom ever for Expect Miracles. This bloom is looking more winterized than the first one back in late November.

Several of today's AG blooms are dead ringers for Lemon Life - a softer and pretty look in winter.

Darren, you're getting a lot more and a lot nicer blooms than I. I think the Santa Ana winds have been hard on my plants.
Aleksandr, thanks for sharing those wonderful photos .

Erny no doubt those winds and very dry conditions lately are making it tough on your plants. If it is any consolation my plants are currently looking their worst in probably a year. I'm not 100% sure but if I remember correctly this time last year some similar results. Just when the plants are all starting their spring growth spurts the leaves that have been on all winter start to really look bad. I wonder if it is their version of shedding old leaves to make way for new ones.
I've noticed on all my citrus trees they have all started doing that now as well. I know we're talking tropical shrubs to trees but I see some similarities in what is going on this time of year.
First ever blooms for Scintillating - must be super winter colors to be all red and pink plus eerwigs living in the blooms took their toll. Great plant by the way - got it last spring as 4" twig and it has grown very well in ground with giant sized leaves too.

Gorgeous SB & SLIH - I don't mind the winter colors on SLIH at all as it is a beautiful red bloom.

Thanks Norm for the enthusiasm - the more the better!
Some real stunners today with Rodeo Drive being my favorite and T Royal Court looking totally different than I've ever seen her...
