Word must have gotten around that I was lusting for "orange" today... When I got home, I found a very peachy Pocahontas and a tasty orange El Capitolio bloom waiting to greet me (must have been that heat wave we had last week).  Cool

I also had a Pocahontas today, its temporarily growing in the shade as is Samba Dancer,  its just to hot here at the moment so I moved them thinking it might be less stressful for a while and never expected them to continue blooming.  The heat and sun does not bother Pinapple Sunday though, difficult to describe just how hot it is in the position its in but its scorching hot, its the same with Dark of Night and that will bloom well tomorrow.

I had a reddish Black Dragon today.  And my first El Capitolio.  It is on a 4" stick...  Real pretty though!

A few artsy fartsy Gabriel.  Getting some beauties from her, makes me take out my macro lens.  Thought I would share with you.  I cant get over the colors this plant puts out!

My Cindy's Heart today with 4 girls on her.  I threw in some shots of her bald skinny waist we were talking about a few weeks ago and all the nodes growing into a million little branches.  I did a funny Photoshop count photo of them all just to see how many there are, did it a few weeks ago and I don't remember if I ever shared it with you... well, here it is.  The first 4 photos are from today though.

David, I really appreciate your reports from Vietnam. Seeing Samba Dancer bloom in the heat is very encouraging. Doubles are so often troublesome but we may have found one that is much less so thanks to your experiences.

Debi I love your pics.  You can't go wrong with such pretty orange colors.  I like your geographic profile location too.

David that is an amazing Pocahontas.  The colors you get on it set it apart from others.  It is the most cheerful and bright one I've seen.

Kristen your pics of Gabriel are stunning.  Thank you for the close ups of those colors.  And of course Cindy's Heart...classic beauty.  Plant is looking good.

Today's offerings....

Flickering Flame Day 3


Flickering Flame & Chariots of Fire finishing off day 4 for all those blooms


Daisy Mae




Sorry no more pics for a couple of weeks on vac.  Plants are in good hands though with one of our forum favorites taking care of them while I'm away.

Who knows maybe she'll even sneak in a pic...Mahalo!

Wow, Lynette, you've got flowers poppin' all over the place. Blues In the Night looks really good and nice to see somewhere other than here.
