If yours is in a raised bed, I'd let it spread a bit more. It's going to be spectacular next spring. I don't recall any of mine flowering, so I'm expecting some die-back this year or next.

Mine is out of control too and about the same colors as yours Twit. Its a nice one though!

Here is my Pacific Purple Shadows! :D

Can't wait to see that one go through a year of growing.

The Pacifics are all still looking nice.

Pacific Shadows

Pacific Jordan

Pacific Devils Food

Pacific Grace

Pacific Zoftic

They are beautiful Chris. Grace and Zoftic are wonderfully fuzzy, and love the tufting on Grace.
Here is my P. 'Devil's Food' right now. It has unusual color year round. I love this semp.


P. 'Plum Fuzzy'


I need to get recent photo of the rest of the Pacific series.

All of my 'Pacific Rim' went to bloom.

Mine are struggling this year with the strange weather too. They must be a weaker/less resistant plant.

I don't have Pacific Rim. I just looked in the database, wow, what a beauty it is. It's very fuzzy.

Sandi, sorry to hear all of yours went to bloom.

Love doing the slideshow on this thread. I just wish there was a way to know what I was looking at......

I asked Dave about that, there is now way to program it to work that way.

I guess one could add the name of the plant to their photo using an editing program prior to uploading. Extra work though...

Well I've done it before but haven't figured it out again. Senior moment! I use open source Gimp for photos but for Windows you can use Paint if you have that on your computer. You should be able to type whatever you want where you want and use whatever font and size of print you want.

Sort of like the copyrights at the bottom of our photos here (but those are added automatically by Dave's program).

That actually was pretty easy. But it does take extra time. I did it in paint.

Cool! You know, I like the slide show but I also like being able to just click on the picture to make it go away. I guess we can't have it both ways.

Guess I need to refigure how to do it in the Gimp. I find that the "Help" in open source software is generally useless, written by and for computer geeks .

Paint is really easy. Just right click on photo in computer files, choose Open With and them choose Paint.

Click outside the photo here in the thread and it will all go away.

Yeah, I know about clicking outside the photo, it's just that I am on the computer too much and the less mouse moving/clicking the better for my wrist. Usually when I enlarge a photo my mouse will end up hovering over it without moving it, so I could just click to close. Seems trivial, I know.

I don't have Paint because it is a Windows program and I use the operating system that Dave uses, Linux, hence I use Gimp. We are a rare breed, not a whole lot of Linux users out there. But I will get it figured out, I just need to spend some time on it!

Pacific Jordan still has some nice color in September.

looking lovely!
