NIce! Ice Cream Emperor is my fav, both for the flower and the name!

Brad

Love Ghost Gifts and Dragonfly Dawn. DD has a scape here, hope to see it soon.

I like Ice Cream Emperor too along with Stone Palace Rejoice, which I don't remember seeing before..................Maryl

Maryl - Stone Palace Rejoice has bloomed here for three seasons. It doesn't do anything for me, and is on the move-out list.

Brad and Maryl - Ice Cream Emperor is always one of my favorites in the early season. It usually reblooms too!

Nancy - That's my seedling out of Dragonfly Dawn - not Dragonfly Dawn. DD has been very disappointing here. The seedlings from it perform much better than the parent.

I love the nice green throat and pattern on Ghost Gifts. Ice Cream Emperor is always one I enjoy seeing. That is a nifty seedling, every day is guess as to what you will see.

Sherry

Thank you for bringing that to my attention, i did not catch that it is a seedling. Very nice, and good to know info on Dragonfly Dawn.

Ghost Gifts and the Dragonfly Dawn seedlings are my picks today. But in all honesty, all of them are lovely. The sepals on the seedling are quite interesting too.

Nancy

I love the look of Ghost Gifts. But the name has me scratching my head. LOL. Lovely group Debra.

The DD seedling is so pretty! My Ice Cream Emperor is almost done blooming but agree it is always so pretty-not sure mine reblooms. I also like Ghost Gifts.

Julia - I think the name Ghost Gifts refers to the white places in the pattern. They don't always show up, from what I've seen in sellers' photos. So sometimes you're gifted with ghosts and other times not.

Kate - I've grown Ice Cream Emperor in two different places, and it's rebloomed almost every year in both. Maybe in another location, yours would rebloom.

Kate and Nan - While the DD seedling is very pretty, it doesn't have more than eight buds on any scape. But taller seedlings with tall foliage block it. Maybe in another spot, it will have more buds and bit more height.

What was the appeal of Stone Palace Rejoice to begin with? I notice that Evick lists a lot of his intros as 7 inches. That's a quite large bloom, and I wonder if it is a distortion.

Mantis - I don't think Stone Palace Rejoice has ever been 7 inches for me. The blooms are usually 6-6.5 inches here. It is a good rebloomer. The appeal to me was the hybridizer's photo that made the bloom look more pink than it is. It's a very orangey pink - sometimes an orange red color here. I thought it would be a good hybridizing plant, but because I hate the color, I don't care to cross it with any of my pinks.
