H. Pina Colada

Does anyone have one in bloom? Mine is just starting to open. I remember thinking the advertised color couldn't possibly be right, but from what I can tell, it looks like it's going to be pretty close!

Would love to see others!

    I wouldn't have believed this color if I hadn't seen it. This is with no flash, taken in the kitchen, under the "usual" lighting...

    WOW!

    What size flower? It seems, from Germa obtained (?)

    Size is 5.5 - 6" across.
    Looked a bit greener with flash, but I am really impressed.
    I guess photo doesn't do it justice!

    We are supposed to have rain over the next couple of days, but I'll try and take a photo in daylight.

    Kristi,
    How does it compare to, say, the green of H. Evergreen? From your photo, it looks to have a similar color. Or is it more yellowish?

    It's pretty brilliant. Maybe comparable to H. Evergreen under the best of conditions. Here's mine 6 years ago.

    Mine is in bloom right now. Not as yellow green as yours Kristi...paler and definitely not like Royal Color's pictured one. Haha!
