Wow John I love your AG with the petaloid!  Awesome!

Erny glad you like HP - definitely different from all the others I've seen...  Wow on your Cindy's Heart - I didn't know you had that one.  The colors on it are so strong but then again all those pics from yesterday showed incredibly strong colors.  A pleasure to view...

OK - first time bloom today for Show Stopper.  This entire planter has been a real challenge for me this summer as I try to figure out how to get five plants all happy but little success so far...the bloom is a mini but if I can keep her happy I'm sure they will improve.

Pinot Noir just keeps producing perfect blooms that are perfectly presented. Also Palm Springs, Flickering Flame, and Sun Shower profusion.

Looking good everyone.

Here is Fly Me to the Moon.  Geez this bloom is amazing, I can't wait to see how this bush matures.  Big bloom, unusual colors and dark eye, this bloom has everything I like Smiley  I really want to see how it compares to James Bond. 

I also had a seedling bloom today: Cyberspace x Roxy Berry.  The bloom is not very exciting, a dusky mauve with white streaks, but the bush is really nice and has lots of apical branching which are budding up.  Roxy Berry is one of the seedlings that Charlie grew for Kerry and is Rocket's Red Glare x Gator Pride, so potential for larger blooms.  I am looking forward to seeing if it improves.

Alexandr, great photos of Night Runner, one of my favorite flowers. I have started using the support stakes they sell for orchids to hold up the blooms on the droopers like Night Runner.
Chris, I'm loving Fly me to the Moon.
A nice Vin Beaujolais today getting dappled shade behind a plumeria. Also magic crystal.
