Here's a group of blooms I picked and brought inside this morning.  Anybody want to take a guess as to who they all are?  Wink

Wow Daren, great color on the Cindys Heart. Valentine Day triplets  and Bright Horizon look nice for me today.

Gorgeous blooms everywhere!

Doll, I'm wondering how the Creole Belle bush is doing at your place? I wasn't too happy with the growth habit in the greenhouse but maybe it does better in more natural conditions that tend to strengthen the branches.

Loved your group photo, Jordan!

Fantastic Cindy's Heart, Framer D. There will be some of that variety and other grafted plants coming up in 2 weeks. Creme de la Creme, Silver Dragon, Cherry Appaloosa among them.

Darren, your Cindy's Heart is almost solid pink. Really impressive.

David, I love your Bright Horizon.

Charlie, Creole Belle is a flopper. Definitely needs to be staked.

Hi everybody here are some pictures for today, Darren your killing us with all those flowers  Angry I started using much larger pots to try to get my plants to grow bigger.
 I bought some pots that are 14" across in the inside . And I'm using a light fluffy soil with about 20% perlite & getting nice root development now.My flowers appear to have a pink halo around the eye probable because the night time temp. has been around 42 deg. to 46 deg.
