I've been very busy lately studying for my exam, but I couldn't pass up showing you my Buttercup blooms from the other day. She's finally big enough to bloom regularly for me. What an outstanding color combo! I love the purple eye.  |

It usually blooms at about 6" or 7". Not the biggest flower but it's still well worth having. I personally prefer nice colors over huge bloom size |

Pretty gaggle (group of 3) of Buttercups. Winter color emphasizes the eye while summer brings out the "butter" - yellow splotches on the flowers.
I think Jordan said real estate, Chris. I bet there's a ton of houses to sell these days. Good luck with everything.

Thanks, Charlie. You're right... I'm taking the CA real estate salesperson exam in a little less than two weeks.

Dave, probably because not many have made it into the store in the last couple of years. Waiting list and international sales got the available ones. It's a grafted variety most of the time.

More pretty colors and some interesting close ups.
The colors are so extraordinary - eye candy for me!

Beautiful Pics everyone! I think Cosmic Gold loves the Pacific Northwest. Saturated tangerine color that commands attention from across the room. The last picture's color is off, but the it does highlight the beautiful tufting and form of this CV. (yes that is robin hood pollen on those pads)  |
