Thanks Charlie. My wife was able to figure out Photoscape and explain it to me. Since you are not sure what to do with those three Silver Dragons, I'll volunteer to step up and take one off your hands.
Jordan, I agree with you on White Hot--looks very nice.
Chris, great photos. Can't get enough of that Area 51 but it deserves a better name.
Now that I can do photos again, here are a few: Simple Pleasures profusion, Eye of Kali twins, my second Magnifique bloom (much nicer than the first), and an 11" orchid cactus bloom.

Simple Pleasures profusion is an understatement!

Erny, your Simple Pleasures is amazing!
Jordan, you can't go wrong with Rainbow Sherbert.

John, great colors on all three of your blooms. Rainbow Sherbert is a real standout.

Darren, all I can say is Wow! What a collection of photos. Everything is looking great and T. Lavender Mist is, as always, giving me a serious case of Tahitian envy.

Darren, loving that color on the Acapulco Golds now. Whenever convenient, could you show an end of day color on the T Lavender Mist? My 3 stock plants of it continue to grow nicely and should provide a fair amount of wood by mid to late summer. I look forward to spreading it around as soon as we can.

Charlie, I'm glad to hear that T. Lavender Mist will be available in the relatively near future. It's been on my wish list for months.

Ernie, I like what I hear about it from Darren and it has shown greater than average vigor as a small grafted plant so far. It would be best if it roots readily but if not we will graft enough to take care of the waiting list. Once upon a time it was thought that vigor corresponded with rootability but more experience has shown that has not turned out to be a reliable indicator.

Very nice Erny, PN looks great!
I had my first Dancing Dragon, the plant is very small so it is not surprised the color and size of the bloom is not up to speed yet as well.

Erny thank you for your gracious compliments on yesterday's pics. It is a privilege to share them with others that see the beauty in them that I do.
Charlie I will make it a point on the next bloom to post a shot after the first day for TLM. FYI - mine is planted facing the west and gets a only hot afternoon sun so you will see the extreme in fading as it gets no shade at all after 2pm. IMO it still looks fab just a different look to it. The plant is vigorous, too bad we have no info on the parents.
