I wanted to post a photo of Fad Gadget here. I posted it in the June Blooms, but to me, this is a very good representation of sculpted. Curt has the most amazing forms.

I saw this one for several years after he selected it from the seedling bed. I have loved it since I first laid eyes on it.

Curt is really on to something with the new forms he is coming out with. Some people think that they are not opening - but that is not the case. They have a three dimensional quality. The pinching is so intense that it holds part of the petals away from the sepals.

I can't imagine what they will look like when we get this level of pinched throat on a big spidery like Applique, or Bali Watercolor. Will look like fireworks.

Davi posted a photo of this one early on this thread. Notice how consistent it is....
