John I'm loving the spotting on HSN - that one is a great bloom!  Look forward to more of those...

Denise great blooms and congrats on getting all four corners popping at once!  CP is one of my ATFs - another big stick colored bloom!

I took some Blushing Maiden shots today and these are two of the best ones.  Also, a Silver Memories.

As always, beautiful shots all!  Darren, I hope my potted plants get to be 7' tall!

Denise and Jordan those are such pretty blooms.  They are perfect in form and color.  Denise love love love CP!!!  Jordan your Blushing Maiden is exceptional - I never thought about that one too much but after seeing your pics of it that is definitely on my radar going forward.

Erny ain't this weather just great for morning pics!  Just the 5 degree drop in temps and I'm seeing my bushes really get much greener again.
