Cook's Bay

12 years ago

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone else has Cook's Bay and can give me some info on this plant. I bought a big cutting from a lady here in Carlsbad in October of 2010 (I know now that was the wrong time of year). It took 1 1/2 years to root and finally grew a lot of very healthy leaves last year. Now I have two inflos developing and the first bud is about to open. It's mostly a pretty strong yellow with a little red and a very strong wonderful fragrance. With hope, it will open completely in the next few days. I'd love any feedback you guys have. Thanks,
Iso

Hi Iso!!

You are very patient.. Wow. It took a longtime to root!! Congratulations on the inflos. Please post picks.

I checked Diana notes and all it said was. " lemon scent, large yellow".

Hope you are well!! Nice to see you!!!

Hi Laura!
Yes, all is well. We are getting ready to go back to Germany (and Luxemburg) in July which means I won't be here for JJ's open house. I was so hoping to see you again :-(
I also checked Diana's notes, found the same info, then asked her if she personally knows anything else (which she doesn't). She'll look for some pictures, though.
Have a wonderful day,
Iso
