Mary Ann Thanks !!
I tried to get everyone that stopped by last year to pick a favorite and very few could give me just one they couldn't narrow it down most people had a few that they Loved but it is hard to pick just one. I am having the same problem trying to decide which ones to show so I'll start by sharing a group that was unique here and that really caught my eye in the garden and grew well for me here this year. My Favorites from 2013
Electric Candy ( This one was Outstanding big flowers and a rainbow of Colors I couldn't even begin to describe.)
Enjoyment ( I Loved the ruffles on it and a great grower here wish I had this plant in all different colors )
Hollywood Star ( By far my favorite pink nothing else like it Star Appeal is close in color but this one is special)
Cardinal Rule ( This one caught me by surprise it came as a bonus and opened overnight I remember seeing it glow across the garden and thought wow what a beautiful red color, It wins favorite red for 2013 )
Golden Gaga ( Another one that came as a bonus and surprised me not sure how you describe the color definitely unique and different and really stood out)
Forbidden Fruit ( I have had this one for years now and it seems to just get better, It has a very unique pink orange tint to it that makes it stand out in the garden and I am trying to add some ruffles to it and keep the color in the coming years
)
Ride The Waves ( This one was very popular this year with friends and visitors there are many blue/purples but none that I have grown or seen that have ruffles like this I didn't count the blooms but it seemed to last a long time)
Wicked Good ( I loved it since the 1st time I saw it blooming in Oregon everything about it is good)
Blue Rising ( Another awesome plant and Heavy bloomer it lasted a long time )
Just Witchery ( The most ruffles I have ever seen it is stunning a beautiful color and highly Recommended I have lots of seeds from it and can't wait to see what the kids look like that comes from it)
Loving You ( This was another bonus that caught my attention from way across the garden I have had many like this over the years but this one stood out and is my favorite of this color pattern it had huge flowers and it was one of the last to bloom here and a great pedigree I think it has lot's of breeding potential.)
More To Come
