A fun day with some FFEs

8 years ago

Like Avelon's my Fried Green Tomatoes bloomed for the first time. It is a pretty bloom, albeit a bit splotchy:

FFO Robed in Majesty

FFE: Senator Edward M Kennedy also bloomed. similar colors, bigger, but not as intense as Fried Green Tomatoes; at least this bloom isn't.


FFO: Westbourne's Blueberry Popsicle:

FFO in two years at least: Asian Fairy Bluebird...and it is splotchy:

FFE: A Little Fire Scarecrow: Finally, Debra, it is blooming!

FFO: Flaming Flamingo:

FFO: Remembering Elizabeth:

FFO:Noel Weston:

I have quite a few more that have just begun to bloom, but this the tenth one, so I will post FFO: Isle of Patmos:

    Kay, all are pretty!! Love the color on Isle of Patmos. Have you posted Noel Weston before this photo? I don't remember it. It really looks dainty. And a color combo I have grown to like. And I know you were really looking forward to Fried Green Tomatoes! That throat did not disappoint, did it?

    Well, Kay, you got me with your pink today, I really like Noel Weston. Robes in Majesty is a close second.

    So glad the Scarecrow is finally blooming for you. I'm sorry it didn't bloom last year. It bloomed for me right away the first year I got it. I always love your photos of Isle of Patmos.

    Beautiful! It's so hard to pick a favorite. I love the big throats on Fried Green Tomatoes and Sen. Edward Kennedy. I also like the watermark on Isle of Patmos.

    Well debra, Scarecrow spent it's first winter in the greenhouse in a pot so it isn't all its' fault. It has three scapes and is doing very well now and I love the bloom. I post the incredibly delicate Noel Weston every year. It is just as delicate as the photos show and I think it is a true beauty. I probably got it from Marietta's and can check if need be. It was very inexpensive, I do know that. Robed in Majesty is an /emerich, Sherry. Nancy, I love bold colors. so I like those bright ones too. But that being said, Isle of Patmos, another Emmerich is a gorgeous thing in a clump. I looked and there are plenty of scapes, so we should have a clump sooner or later. I think I have only four more new ones to bloom this year. Of course, since it is me, there will be a few (but only a few) next year. One of Polston's I can't wait to get and see...it is an odd color that I like, and I love the name..."I'll Get you My Pretty". Bwahaha!

    Beautiful group, and know you love having a bloom on Fried Green Tomatoes. Love the delicate color of Noel. Isle Of Patmos is always a pretty one. A Little Fire Scarecrow and Flaming Flamingo are eye catching.
