Pink Perfection
Photo taken from above as high as I could reach. My camera seems to block out a lot of red, allowing a lot of white to show through. Reality is, there is very, very little visable white showing through in real life. This one is as dark or darker than my darkest Midnight. I would like to call it a Purple Perfection (no hint of any yellow/orange center). Did you know that de Graaff selected the darkest Pink Perfection he could find, then cloned it and marketed them as: Purple Perfection. This one was dug from the back yard of an estate sale and brought to me by a friend about 10--12 years ago. It has been double nosing for the last couple 2--3 years. This year I believe it has finished dividing.

A fuller view. This one is scheduled to be scaled this Fall. Plant was disbudded immediately after this photo.
