It's a vary pretty pink and lavender with super heavy texture. The flowers last long and look great. But it doesn't root and there are so many on my "graft when I find time" list that I may not get to it any time soon. sigh.......

It's between this one and Berried Treasure for me.  At the moment I'm leaning a little towards Berried Treasure, as it's a little larger and seems to have a little more purple.

I really need to try some grafting out myself.  I just need to to get the rootstock going, but alas there is no room or time or space right now :(

Cris, it is one of those things you can do in winter, since grafts do not need or want a lot of sun while they are healing up. Some people find they get better success in the winter (indoors of course) because of less stress to the new grafted plant. Maybe when you get settled in Colorado you will find time to give it a try.
