November Flower Photos of the Day

Darren, Rosalind is a medium size bush. Branches out nicely on its own. I believe it is a grafted variety.

Really fine photos from everyone!

Rosalind was one of the best bushes we grew in 90's and we based a lot of our earlier hybridizing on Rosalind in order to improve bushes overall. It was imported from Australia by HVH and was one of very few varieties that are still around from that time. Unfortunately, it is not a good rooter so we moved on to other varieties as time passed but it is still a very nice variety to grow as it blooms well and stands up to sun and heat well. We grafted a couple of dozen of them a year or two ago and will do so again one of these days.

Here are a few bush photos of Rosalind:

1. 15 gallon pot with 8 inch pot next to it for size reference.
2. Bush in the ground in our Fallbrook garden.
3. Blooming 8 inch pot of Rosalind.

Two days of light rain give us clean looking plants and wet blooms. Bright Hope has become one of my favorites. With its vivid colors and sharply demarcated margins it is a real eye catcher. Also Secret Heart, Palm Springs, Cherry Blue, Acapulco Gold, and Climax with a dramatic halo.
