Thanks for your kind words Vickie and Char. My urban setting makes my collection far smaller than most on this forum.
I'm in awe at so many of your sculpted blooms Char. Impossible Dreamer is definitely a beauty.

I only have one new "I" for 2021, and unfortunately it's not a good picture of a not very good bloom. But I've seen pictures of it where the blooms are beautiful! So...

IN YOUR EYES


Hopefully I'll get better pictures next year.

Even though the picture doesn't show In Your Eyes at its best, it is easy to see that it is a beauty.

Is the wide yellow ruffling called "chicken fat"? I heard that description at a club meeting years ago and thought it was not a very complimentary description. Haven't heard it much in the last few years, so was wondering if anyone else uses that term.

I've also heard that term but don't think of it when I see that beautiful edging. But there is a MUCH better picture of IN YOUR EYES, taken by Luddy Lambertson, here in our database.

Isabelle Rose I received late last fall. It was my 2nd best performing DL with 30+ flowers blooming for five weeks. It only got to about 29 inches in height. The flowers are incredible and got to the actual size. Everyone stood out. I highly recommend this one. It's a garden standout for sure.


bluegrassmom said:I have been away on a short family vacation, so I am trying to catch up. Lovely pics.

Isabelle Rose is one I bought for my birthday last Sept Rolling my eyes.

It's a good thing I really like that song.

It was super popular for wedding ceremonies this summer…randomly, as it hasn't shown up much before.

And fantastic flower, Betty! Sticking tongue out

The more of these alphabet lists I do, the longer my Want list grows... but here come the 'I's from my gardens...

I Suppose (new for me in 2021, will have to take pics this year)
Isle of Capri (ditto, another one new in 2021)
Indian Giver
Infinity
Itsy Bitsy Spider

Not very many in the 'I' list, so far.
