Still love those dark blues! I have a plantensis that has buds on it .. now I know what the flowers are going to look like!

A few more purps...wonder why I spend so much money on the nils when the purps are free and just as nice

Oh that's right...the addiction thing

Ginro's 'child' is beautiful, Joseph. I like those purps, too, Ronnie, especially the first two.

I like the big floppy nils that look like doilies, so this was my favorite this morning. It has a name, but I could not find the tag amongst all the foliage.

I really like the split petal but Ginro's saturated color and variegated foliage would have me dancing in the street.

The Blue Silk is staying true to it's color no matter what light! Joseph you called it a Varient so it's not a cross?
