I'm not big on full forms but L. Ginger Bred is my pick of the bunch. It's just beautiful.

Tink, if that's the color I'm going to be disappointed and making a call to Karen. I still like the pattern but not that muddy color.

Oh well, here's what I had on tap today:

Double Image


Geneva Rockin Robin, FFO. Can't get the intensity of the color to show here and the form will improve but it's early season and fun to have something to show/look at.

Scarlet Lace FFO, same as above for form.

Warning. FFO. This image is dark but showed the pattern best.

The first image was taken very early morning and the second mid-morning. I haven't adjusted the color on either. Every morning I go out and shoot pics of what's blooming and then come inside to sit down with the PlantStep software to plan my crosses and pull frozen pollen if needed. After I'm finished crossing I take more time and shoot pics again. I've noticed that the early morning shots have a bluish cast to them and the creams seem whiter.
