BEAUTIFUL!!!!!  Darren, great Bonnie Lass!  I thought it was Valentines Day.  And of course your Black Dream & Summer Fun is as always, a winner!  
Erny, I love your DD. & Heavy Metal.
Chris, Great Cinnamon Girl!
Deb, Your Sunshower is incredible!  And what is that Not Belle?  Really pretty!
Mike, Your blooms are looking great!

Right now it's in the high 40's!  Yes, you heard me correct!  CT is tough for my hobby!  Gives me great muscles lifting all these pots constantly though Smiley

Hi Kristen - (Sunshower) Thanks! He's been one very busy pollinator this summer!  ("Not Belle") I got "Not Belle" two years ago from HVH, I thought I was getting "Belle du Jour." When "Belle" finally bloomed this summer, it was obvious she wasn't "Belle du Jour"... So, I started calling her "Not Belle" until we figured out who she really is  Cheesy

Charlie - I'll be sending you some "Not Belle" wood soon, along with some more seeds (Inner Compass x Sunshower and Tahitian Taui x Fantasy Charm)

P.S. Kristen - I know what you mean about the muscles... Everyone has been asking me if I've been working out... Gardening actually - LOL!  I guess carrying a full 3 gallon watering can in & out of the apt. 6 times a day/7 days a week is better that a gym membership   Wink

Two first time blooms for me! Prosperity and Pinot Noir. And my ever-blooming Gabriel. This tiny little plant has pumped out so many blooms for me this Summer!

Also one other thing
 Charlie does Rodeo Drive usually set seeds , I have two seed pods on my plant , and also one seed pod on Ruby Tuesday .

I don't know about Rodeo Drive but my best guess is yes since parent Rainbow Christie is an excellent seed setter. Let us know if you get black seeds from the pods.

Hi Charlie,

Thanks for your reply, so does that mean this is a misprint?  So I should change the name to caramel Toffee


Thanks, Patrick

Yes, it was a misprint - should read Coramel Toffee. Sorry about that.

John and Denise, very nice pictures.
My first bloom on Really Red today and it certainly lives up to its name. Also Sparkling Waters and Slapstick.

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to say how amazing all the blooms are!  I am really enjoying getting to see all of them.  School is in full swing in South Carolina and I don't get to look at the flowers as much as I did during the summer.  My babies from HVH are really growing....no blooms yet.  Two more HVH should arrive this week to add to my small collection!  Keep the beautiful pictures coming....because I do enjoy looking at them in my spare time...when not grading papers!

Have a blessed week!

Here is a new seedling--Tin Man X Tarantella. It is pretty, but small--sure didn't inherit Tarantella's size. Also Rum Runner profusion and Voodoo Magic profusion.
Darren and Charlie, here are some pictures of the Banksia blooms I wanted you to see but weren't fully developed when you were here.

Erny, So glad to see Really Red!  Mine is still a little baby.  Growing strong though!

Kristen, you are really going to like Really Red. It's one of the nicest reds I've seen. The photo doesn't quite capture the true color--it's better than it appears there.
Len, very nice pictures--love the group shot.
