Jim's would have to be a whopper. My 'Diamond Jubilee' is 7" in diameter. I like your V. Pearman, Bree. Mr V. Sunlight Orange is now blooming, though only a single stem. My Blc. Greenwich 'Elmhurst' AM/AOS is also in bloom, a single flower. This flower is also 7" in diameter. The final photos are of the Blc. Copper Queen. Her flowers are 4" in diameter. Oddly enough, the colors of the Copper Queen are much more subdued than when it bloomed in May. These two photos show quite a bit of difference in the spring and fall colors. Other than the 'Diamond Jubilee', all these are all twice-a-year bloomers. Today is very dark and gloomy. Unfortunately I had to use a flash, so the colors are a little washed out.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
