Lillian's Vapor Trail

Black Fathom Depths - I don't remember there being a trillion buds in a cluster on all the scapes the past two years I've had this, but the blooms can hardly open with all the buds grouped together. Not a nice presentation.

Festive Jousting

Winter Treasure

Arctic Lace

Sam Abell

Michael Bennett

Cameroons

Jumping Jack

And here's Up And At 'Em again, pumping out blooms every day!

That's 10. I'll do a single blooms post too. Thanks for looking!

All are lovely but I am drawn to Lillian's Vapor Trail and the blooms are well placed to cascade. Does it do that all the time? Is it as white in the photo or more a cream color? Black Fathom Depths has also shown to be top heavy in buds here and I've only seen a couple which got hung up on other buds. I have Winter Treasure here and it always shows white like your Arctic Lace with very tiny hint of pink at times. Interesting how it shows in other gardens.

Is Lillian's Vapor Trail really 12 inches? Shows a lot of flair! Winter Treasure has never done well here. Arctic Lace is blooming on low scapes. Thanks for your evaluative comments.

So many lovely whites! Lillian's Vapor Trail is my favorite today. I like Up and At 'm. I'm on the fence with the patterns like Jumpin Jack.

Lillian's Vapor Trail is a standout!! It has the 'wow' factor for sure! And once again I love Up and At Em, especially in such a nice clump as yours. I always like Michael Bennett and your Artic Lace is lovely. Lovely post!

Thanks all :) With my picture of Lillian's Vapor Trail, I think that is two or three scapes in the picture. Mantis, it's not 12" here - maybe if it was uncurled... I think it's more like 9". Not sure if you were talking about my Arctic Lace or yours having short scapes, but I don't think mine does - I can't reach it to take a close picture, so I lifted the camera high and zoomed.

Here's a pic I just took (5PM on a hot humid day) of LVT with a shasta daisy to show the color - it's not "white", definitely more cream. Gotta run, thanks again.

Fabulous photo of Lillian's Vapor Trail! I have that one, but in two years it hasn't bloomed for me. Yours is so inspiring, I guess I'll give it another year.

Lovely collection of blooms. Lillian's Vapor Trail really stands out. Arctic Lace looks very pretty, and I am drawn to the color combination of Sam Abell.

Lillian's Vapor Trail definitely my favorite, but I like all the creamy whites you've posted.
