I took more photos of other peoples flowers this year than I have in several years. This is what some looked like in South Alabama.

Not as vivid as I expected but a nice flower

Very nice cream pink.

I think this is one of her better ones.

Not crazy about the form(I like round) but a nice flower.

Most likely her best eye and edge to date

One of her first ones, one that really does well here.

This is IVAN ATTITUDE I have used it to death and got some great seedlings from this flower.

Wow, Fred, Lovely! I don't think I have ever seen any of hers up here in any of the gardens I go to. I'll have to ask some of the people around here if they had them and I just didn't notice. You know, when you go to some people's places and they have hundreds of plants in bloom, you just can't comment on all of them to find out what they are. That is why it is nice when they are all clearly labeled with name and hybridizer.

A Force To Be Reckoned With

Call Me Carla

Dreamsicle Supreme

I really think this is the best intro of 2009, I got so many pods on this flower this year

Nicole's Tiger Eye

I like your picture better Fred, very nice

Glamoureyez

My favorite in the whole garden this year

If anybody in zone 5 grows Nicole's flowers, I sure would like to hear how they do.

Im headed over to her place tomorrow. I will ask her what feedback she has gotten on any northern hardy plants.
The clump is a flower she calls Nicoles Appreciation Plant. Its not registared and she gave them away at a lily gathering this year. Its kinda like call me carla but with more color.


Red Velvet Elvis

Thanks Pam!!!!

Im wondering if anywone grows her 'Afterglow"

To me, it look likes Happy Happy, but with a different shape eye

Nice photos Ed. I grow After Glow but failed to take a picture of it.

Cindy, I never made it over to Nicoles, too hot , then rained all day yesterday. Im still planning and going. Will check those northern hardy varieties...if there are any. Seems she would mention that in the description.
