I'll drop some new pix of seedlings here as I get some free time.

Sometimes color fading works!! Two pix that show the same seedling 4 days apart. Nice to start, and even nicer 4 days later when it fades.




Looks like I have very little in the way of asiatic cross seeds to go to the seed exchange this year. I will have some blackheart aurelian cross seeds though.

That is very nice Hank. You are right on this one, the color fade works. Almost like 2 flowers in one!

Black Heart Aurelian crosses make me drool!

I love color changing! But I haven't experienced anything so dramatic. This one is super attractive, Hank.

Some of you may remember the multicolored Shibori spirea. (often incorrectly called Shrobana) It has long since left the catalogs and nurseries. I don't know why. I love mine....

Love it, Hank! I can imagine how effective it will be as a mature stem with both fresh and faded flowers...

Hank, you do nice work with those asiatic seedlings. The brushmark on a b/c orientation is very special.

I think this one should have been named 'Morpho Pink' instead of the one Bergman has. No offense to Brian in saying that of course!

Happy New Year !

This one may work as an art print for the wall.

Spending today getting seeds and pix together for the seed exchange.

Glad I'm not the only one running behind on that... The hard part for me is getting the photos together. Some are on my pre-2014 computer where the thumbnails are teeny tiny. Hummmph!

That is one beautiful seedling!

Here is what is going to the seed exchange. Just have to collect the pix, burn them to a cd and mail it out. The seeds are already candled and packaged 20 per pkt.

So organized Hank. Those will be well received, I am sure.

Very nice, Hank! I suspect those will go quickly!

Nicely photographed, I like the reverse picotee.

Ooooh, I adore those colours - perfectly edible!
