I have four varieties that I have no idea what they are. A mauvish color -- this one is shorter and smaller than the other Germans I have.

A two tone burgundy-- later blooming.

A two tone purple

and one with a peach top, and burgundy on the bottom-- this one also blooms later than the others. I"ve posted on my blog the photos and would love anyone's help in identifying them. Thanks so much!

The purple and peach looks like my Crimson Snow.

The pictures are huge, 340 Mp, but they are too blurry for good guesses. Exclude some background and get a sharper image by using a tripod, or have someone with a steady hand take them. The free Irfanview program is easy to make them screen sized.

3 guesses for the mauvy pink are Lady Fosta, El Morocco or Easter Bonnet.
