Some blooms so far this season....

12 years ago

Here are a few pictures of what I've had bloom for me so far this season.

Evergreen, a new bulb that didn't put on as good a show as my last one, taken in the very early morning with the low sun shining in (we all know she isn't this color).

Chico, all pollination attemps failed on a rooted bulb! I guess she wasn't in the mood.

Lima there might be some takes on this one..

and Lime Flair..small flowers some with more red than others and a short stem which is nice. No pollination attempts on this bulb.

a new Exotica..smaller flowers than usual but this happened on my older bulb also on it's maiden bloom..

and of course I've posted Pink Diamond before but I thought I'd just add her to the list..

and a group photo of the 3 that are in full bloom currently..with Cherry Nymph standing tall in the back..

I also had 2 scapes on Blossom Peacock that were very pale and another scape on it's way..I didn't bother to take her picture..

Thanks for looking,

Donna

Nice Donna. Funny how the lighting had such an impact on color of the first bloom. At least it wasn't blue!

Thanks everyone!

I had ordered 2 Cutting Edges and 1 Lime Flair but the first Cutting Edge was a Lime Flair so I think I have 2 hopefully not 3 because I really wanted Cutting Edge. The 3rd bulb does appear different; thicker scape and larger bud so I will hold out hope that I get at least one!!

So beautifull Donna !
I wonder if I prefer Evergreen with less flowers like yours , mine had so many that I only could see a mass of green but couldn't admire the flowers.
And nice winter lightening.

As I look again at my pictures I feel I must apologize for the messy stuff all around my house...My husband is the first to admit that I'm not a good house cleaner and I have to agree....
