I got my first bloom on Flirtatious today. I must say I was a little disappointed. It was a pretty bloom, but nothing like what I was expecting from the pictures of it on the website. I was wondering if anyone else has had any blooms of it yet? I know it is a new CV for 2012, so maybe it is just because it is so young? There is another bud on it that should open in about a week. I'll keep my fingers crossed, and I'll post when it blooms.

Paul, that is a pretty nice yellow you got, but definitely not Flirtatious which is pink.

If we have a Flirtatious we will send it to you next week but if we don't we can send one to you next spring. It would help if you would write to our office email so Cindy can set up the replacement or credit if you prefer.

Here's a photo of the real Flirtatious.

Thanks Charlie! I'll email Cindy tomorrow. It's still a great plant and a pretty bloom!

All right - I got my first bloom today of Flirtatious so here it is fresh from the outdoors in November.  The fact that I got a full sized bloom on a relatively small plant shows some strong vitality for this cv.  A really fun bloom with lots of character.

I got this plant as a little 4" rooted cutting back in early summer.  It is in the hottest part of my garden and was underwatered for a few months yet it has done well so another good testament to this one.

2nd Flirtatious bloom - love the bright and cheerful colors.  The plant is a steady and strong grower as it started as just a little twig rooted cutting back in mid summer.  Seems to be pretty floriferous too - sounds like all the right attributes to me.
