After the rain yesterday, the flowers are very nice today.

Butter Pecan is one of Bob's favorites.

Cancun Candy is more peach than this pictures shows. It is a nice big flower.

Ella Bella is a beautiful hose in hose double.

Gavin Petit is looking good today.

Mike Longo is a southern that struggles a bit, but the blooms are beautiful.

I'd better put the rest in the comments.

Rajah is an early Stout hybrid.

Raspberry Flambe is sometimes splotchy, but today is looking pretty good.

A Man Called Trout is new this year so it's blooming on a short scape, but it is a big flower. This one came from Canada from a hybridizer by the name of Don Longton.

The seedlings are magnificent today, but we had time to get pictures of only a few. Here is the royal court.

Sea of Cinders X Happy Holidays to You is shorter than we like, but the color and edge are amazing.

Creepy Crawler X Pineapple Bites has some nice teeth.

EE-6 X Forestlake Ragamuffin is another that is shorter than we like, but I like the flower.

Bob likes New Tangerine Twist X Horns. It's a nice bright color, but I wish it had some teeth.

Jewel of Jewels X Dr Jules Michael Vinkman is a big flower with a big eye.

That's enough seedlings for today.

Cancun Candy is my favorite of the registered ones. Butter Pecan is a nice one that I grow too. Have you had any success crossing it with toothy cultivars? Three of the seedlings really stand out to me: the Creepy Crawler kid, EE6 x FR, and the last one, which I think you should call Jewel of Jules!

Butter Pecan and Cajun Candy tie for favorite registered one. The seedlings are lovely, and I really like Jewel of Jewels X Dr Michael Vinkman, and that gorgeous yellow.

Thanks for the pictures. If Bob likes Butter Pecan, he might like Homemade Peach Ice Cream.
