I've been slacking on posting my pictures! Thought I'd take some pictures tonight, to see which ones still looked good at 7:00, after a 95 degree day. I was happy with what I saw!

A seedling I bought a couple of years ago.

Wow! Yes that seedling is Very Nice!

The seedling is HUGE, and really tall too! I just love it! The parents are unknown, but I couldn't resist it!

Don't blame you. I love that PINK!

It's not the best bloom in the photo, but after all day in the hot sun, I thought it held up really well! I'm going to see if I can get the hybridizer to register it if I pay for it. I just want to register one of my own first.

The bloom looks really good in the photo. If your paying....I can understand that. That seedling is really nice it should be registered.

I was told that the reason it wasn't registered was because of the cost. It's not much, so I think the real reason could have been that they just weren't into registering it. It was a friend of an acquaintance, so I don't know anything more than that. Overall, it's a fantastic plant!

Edited to add that the other reason was because the garden name was taken, but I checked, and it's not taken.

Seems a little odd. Some people may just not want to mess with registering them though.

Here are some more of my blooms from July 3-5th.

Fun Fling is looking vaguely familiar too!

Also like blue beetle

Firelighter, Purple Maze and Ethel Buccola.



Feathered Prism, William Shakesphere and FFOE prebloom Dale Hensley.

Pink Promenade, Pink Smile and Cosenza.

Only one to contribute today. New plant and blooming at 12" and 15". Wasn't happy after being potted so I just opted to plant in the ground and it perked up immediately. The 2 blooms today are a certain indicator that this one will grow to be a favorite!

Ancient Elf (thanks Lisa!)

Lots of good ones today!

Pink Promenade is very nice.

Hemlady said:Pink Promenade is very nice.

Thanks very much. It's pretty hard to find so I am going to ship a couple fans to a friend w/ greenhouse to grow for increase.
