I think you got the wrong picture for 'Haunted', Rob..
Here's mine.. still in a pot, so I can't really judge it yet, except that it was pretty.

'Finishing School' pretty much stole my heart. Lovey dubby


I'm warming up to the pinks.. This is my favorite.. 'Poodle Parade'... tons of flowers on a one year plant.

The flowers on 'Rare Coin' have been huge! It really makes a statement.

'Oil Painting' is darker when it first comes out, but I never managed to get a decent picture of a freshly opened flower. It's lovely as it fades as well.

Glad to see that I put this picture in the database. It was one that was lost when my computer crashed. Sadly, It looks like 'Border Skirmish' has bloomed out. It's one that I will have to replace..
oops.. Border Skirmish is not a TB, but a BB.

Sherry, I think yours is Haunted Heart. Rob's Haunted is a BB and picture fits the description.

Those are some beauties! Rare Coin and several others have bloomed without increase for me. I still have hope they'll shoot up some sprouts. Crossing Fingers!

Bright Sunshiny Day (not mine) won Best Yellow at our show today. My Gypsy Lord at least got a blue ribbon. Judging was tough and Best of Show was a siberian since rain and hail and heat and wind do not normally bother them. They also transport well too. We had 110 entries and the flowers showed well.
