Great looking blooms everyone, I just wanted to know if I missed the April and May newsletter or was there not one for those months.
Thanks, Patrick

Well winter decided to return again for a one night encore here in WV.  It was 33 degrees F when I woke up at 6 this morning. So I luckily I had moved my "rain forrest" indoors last night after work (which took a little over an hour. It looks like Tahitian Taui and Black Dragon again were very thankful for the move indoors. (TT bloomed for me 2 weeks ago when I moved it indoors b/c of freezing temps.....I sense a pattern!) 1) Tahitian Taui
2)Black Dragon
3) TT & BD getting cozy together.... maybe some offspring in the future? LOL
4) My living room...or whats left of it. LOL (And this isn't even all the plants!)
Happy Spring everyone! LOL |

Patrick,
I've just emailed you the April Newsletter to the address we have for you in the forum. There's not a May issue yet and we may not have time this month to do one. Back in June for sure.
Beautiful photos from everyone lately!
Charlie

Velvet Illusion is a real standout. Its vivid color just leaps out at you from half a block away. I tried to capture that with this photo but it is more impressive in person. Also Living Legend, Bridal Path, and Hollywood Starlet.

Here are some bush photos: Daisy Mae and then Silver Dragon, Acapulco Gold, and Flickering Flame that are planted near each other. All were received in 6" pots late last summer so they already had some height to them. But they have grown well and are filling out nicely now.

Really nice blooms, John D.
Erny, thanks for showing those bushes - I'm particularly impressed by that young Prosperity.

John, that's a beautiful display of blooms.
Charlie, that Prosperity is a really fine bush at less than a year old. But Sizzle, Hollywood Starlet, and Cherry Glow are just as good at the same age. All are about 5' tall and extremely well branched.
Velvet Illusion put out nice triplets today. Also Electric Orange (another great bush), Cindy's Heart, and Tahitian Sophistication.
