Double posting is fine with me. I'm thinking about the people who come to the forum and want to check out info and photos of specific varieties. They can use the search function to find the cv wherever it might be mentioned but it would be good to have as many photos as possible in the variety's own thread, too.

Message from Nina in another topic, reposted here.

Blue Ballerina is a nice plant and very floriferous. I really like a lot BB, here is my 2 year old plant, without one big branch that I pruned for propagation. I would really like to have some more plants like this.

It's been said here many times before, but Blue Ballerina really is a great indoor bloomer.  This winter in NJ it has been the most consistent indoor bloomer I've had by far that isn't under artificial lighting.  I've also found this cv to be one of the first to bounce back with blooms after a spider mite attack. The color variations indoors this winter have been interesting too as you will see below.  In just 2 days apart I had a "pink" ballerina bloom, followed by a more usual purplish-blue ballerina bloom.

It seems with each bloom the colors on my BB seem to change a bit.  While I love BIG flowers, the mini's are awesome in their own right.

Hi Kristin,

Nice to hear from you!

We had some good Blue Ballerinas earlier this spring but it looks like we are out now. We'll be doing new inventories for the updates in June and July soon, and might find more then but I just don't know at this time. You can also do a wish list on the forum - Cindy really tries to take care of them first.

Thanks Charlie. I had to make a few cuts in the number of plants I have. They got too big! My friends appreciated it tho.... However, my Blue Ballerina was highly protected, along with Cindy's Heart, Laguna Starlight, Little Mermaid, Saffron....... But I will update my wishlist!
