Is this what I think it is? I guess it could be a new leaf but I am hoping for more.

Looks like a sheath to me!

looks like 'more' to me too!

I agree, it looks like a sheath.

3 big fat buds on Rlc. Seto Rainbow 'Fantasy' getting ready to POP!

What pretty colors are about to pop.

This one is killin me! Huge buds on an anonymous plant that I'm pretty sure is one of my bare root bargains from Rafael. No idea where the tag went - those rascally raccoons must have stolen it. I sure hope it opens tomorrow. The one bud showing color has been in suspended animation for a couple of days.

Bc Morning Glory
No, I have no idea....

I hate that when the NOIDS torture us like that!

Well, I went back to last spring's pictures files, and found what might be this one, we'll see when it opens - C. gaskelliana var. coerulea2.

Making a tag as soon as it pops.

I've got a few things for next months thread..


Schomburkia tibiana
From a plant I got last fall.





Rchg Honkey Tonk Woman


Blc. Goldenzelle 'Lemon Chiffon' x Blc ( Mem. Helen Brown x Mlya's Gold)


Grt Why Not



Rlc Yens surprise 'Seiko'



Blc Sherri Styles 'sunshine '



B Nodosa 'Mas Mejor' x Nodosa Remar




Bc. Richard Young ' Cariad's Colette'

Love them all!
That would be Myrmecophila (or Schomburgkia) tibicinis?
B. nodosa is a species, lower case. My IPad capitalizes it too, darn the autocorrect!

Ursula, I think what Lindsey really meant is Myrmecophila Tibiana (Myrmecophila tibicinis x Myrmecophila thomsoniana). So the Tibiana needed to be capitalized to show it is not a sepcies. I will forgive her the Schomburgkia.

But then, there is no "e" in Honky.
It is Rby. Sherrie Styles 'Sunshine ' Check spelling and caps
It is Rlc. Yen Surprise
and small n's in all the nodosas.

Ahh, Tibiana!! Thanks! That should be a beauty!

Can't wait to see them in all their bloomin' glory!!!

Guilty as charged...
I was rushing to beat the 9 neighbors that were about to descend on my patio for frozen margaritas.
Paul Storm (Mr Schomburkia) advised me that the Tibiana is probably mis labeled.. I guess one has an open lip and the other ( tibicinis doesn't).. Or vice versa... I have transcribed all this info and will make tags tomorrow (since I definitely should not be doing this after cocktail hour )..
Thanks Jim for keeping me in line!

Paul Storm better be careful not to get ants in his pants or they will change his name and send him to South America.

Jim

I think he's already in Asheville, NC...probably trying to stay one step ahead of the boffins.

This is something new ( for me) on my
Bpl. Golden Peacock 'Orange Beauty ',
I have 3 new spikes and one of them appears to be getting ready to branch with some more buds..



It will be interesting to see if they shrivel up or if they do something!
