Pat, I LOVE the first one! I like the pattern of the throat and mid ribs on the second one. Both have excellent color combinations.

Lovely! Who are the parents of each seedling?

Nice to see some first of the season seedling blooms. I can't wait to see some first time bloomers here.
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.

Wow, that magenta color against the chartreuse green throat
is so striking along with the patterned sepals.
Plus a rather large bloom and rounded form. What's not to love. Great job.

The second one is lovely as well, but the colors in the first one grab me.

Actually, Barbalee, you could since the plants do all the work.

so much for that...

Barbalee,
From my experience with G.H. Wild plants you will be surprised what these will look like in a few months, in a year they will really shock you. I don't think I have lost a single plant from them, and so far I don't even recall getting one mislabeled... Crossing Fingers!
I have divided several of mine after only two years.

I'll hang on to high hopes, @Seedfork, but I'm guaranteeing absolutely nothing!
