This is the second flush for Seminole Moon. The first flush was frost damaged when the heater ran out of propane and I didn't notice it until the temperature in the greenhouse had reached 30ºF. The blooms are supposed to be orange. Right now the blooms are gold rather than orange. She should look more like this:

Maybe as the weather warms up.

Seminole Moon appears to be mite free even though Brugs nearby have spidermites. She produces hugh leaves. I'm growing her as a standard, but she has new growth all up and down her trunk that I have to rub off. I'm so tempted to leave a few as back-up.
