How fun to see these in your garden! The colors are so much richer for you. I guess all that rain you got and cooler temps make the difference. The two that look the most different are Chance Encounter x Never Been Kissed and Robes for the Queen x Black Falcon Ritual. If the Robes for the Queen seedling had ever looked that good here, I would have never let it go. LOL I'm glad the Chance Encounter seedling has increased well for you. Zuzu's Treasure looks great in both light exposures, and Coco's Curiosity is so pretty in your shade shot. Could you message me later this year and let me know your bud counts for Dearest Val and Coco?

Thanks for showing these!

I will do the bud count for you. Dearest Valentine is small its first season here, Coco looks great its first season. I dont remember your stats on Coco but I think it has done great for the first season here.

Dearest Valentine opened its first bloom today, it is small but the color is scruptious. Here is the Chance Encounter seedling today.

Zuzu's Treasure is my favorite, nice to see them all in different

A good comparison of how a bloom can look. Dearest Valenintine definitely looks more in the pink range.

Your last photo of the Chance Encounter seedling most closely matches what I get here. It looks like Dearest Valentine was more red than pink for you. Was it cool when that photo was taken?

Thanks again for the photos!

Debra

Debra, it wasnt cool for that photo.

Thanks for posting that photo of the Busby kid. It looks pretty in your garden!
