I went to a yard this afternoon where I am growing lots of seedlings. I had a few blooms I thought might be open. A friend was going to water for me Friday but it looked like she didn't. Lots of pots had fallen over.

A seedling that was about 9 ft, so straight with a beautiful crown had fallen over. Part of the Y had broken off with the flowers that were so close to being open. And as luck would have it, it is the darkest one I have ever had coming out of the calyx. And it is a low calyx also...my fav. WOE IS ME!

Here is the broken piece laying on top of the pot where I put it. In person it is even darker.
