Joseph, this one - http://garden.org/thread/view_... - looks like it would make a great Halloween decoration

Gus & Alana - what magical blue freckles & shimmering dust for the fairies

Maybe it's the weather - hot and humid today - I'm ready for Halloween & sprites on ice

Looks like there's enough snow/ice on the leaves for ice dancing - they could stay warm that way

Lovely blooms Cinda and Alana Hurray!

Found this one in my Blue Silk pot...guess net year I will do one vine per pot, too hard to keep them separate when you get a stray.

A speckled thread could have been started with that flower, and still can. Nice ones, everyone!

This is the first day I've been home late enough in the morning to see my MGs in a while.
Kanoko self sows every year, always the same but always different too. Not quite white....

And more of that pale cocoa cream one that I am enamored of, in duet.

Thanks Ronnie. Kanoko has often split like that in recent years, but not always.

This one has huge flowers, green variegated dragonfly leaves, and I don't know its name.

Beautiful! But what do you mean by "dragonfly" leaves?

It's a defined shape made by the Japanese. Basically it is a long central lobe with two smaller lobes on each side, which I guess they thought looked like a dragonfly.

Hmmm, sounds like that would describe most I. nil leaves, wouldn't it?

Ooh Ronnie. That's special. It reminds me of Orihimi/Oreheme.
