I agree . Black Forrest Ritual is a very good plant. I am glad that Pink Tarantula is blooming for you. I really like Bo Knows. Fashionaire is another nice Bennett and it is a poly which adds to its beauty. And who wouldn't like a red with a name like Fire On the Mountain. Nice post, David.

For some reason, Linda Sierra had low bud count this year. Heman has few scapes; however, the blooms have been completely clean. Unfortunately, the color here is washed out this year. Fashionaire has good color. The pic is darker than that on the NGA site. Black Falcon Ritual looks good; it had a banner year here this year. I thought you generally avoided Peat plants. Didn't you say that you had only a few--for reasons of tenderness?

Nice photo of Black Falcon Ritual, it seems to be liked by all who grow it. I like Fashionaire, nice Bennet. I hope you post another photo of Heavenly Way Big, very interesting bloom.

I like both of your Bennets..........Fire On The Mountain calls to me. That color in your photo is so saturated. Such a pretty shade of daylily red with a small yellow throat to set it off. I think it's my favorite this time........Maryl

Mantis,

I tend to stay away from Petit's intros due to some tenderness issues and rarely ever reaching their registration height.

Pink Tarantula is making quite a statement! I like the saturated red on Fire on The Mountain. Black Falcon Ritual is always a winner as are the Bennetts.

Linda Sierra and Scott Fox are good looking Peats. I bought Linda Sierra three times, and each time it broke out in rust so horrendous that I trashed it each time. Pink Tarantula and Black Falcon Ritual look great!

A number of very pretty ones! My faves are FASHIONAIRE, Pink Tarantula, and Black Falcon Ritual.
