On my monitor the color looks very acurate - it's a rich deep peachy pink color. I was outside doing my morning garden stroll this morning and I saw the paint brushes I had bought the day before sitting on the patio table (I bought them to try my hand at pollinating a few brugs this summer). I decided to practice taking pollen so I took some out of a new bloom on Citronella and just for the heck of it -- I brought it over and applied it inside this one. Now..I have no idea if it will take, don't particularly care because Citronella isn't something I would have ideally chosen to cross with this, I would have preferred to take pollen from this one and maybe cross it with Golden Lady - but she is in between flushes right now with no flowers. Anyway..I still don't know what this is unless it is one of the cuttings I was sent of the cross Unknown X Pink/Peach. I never heard of Pink/Peach but it is an apt description of this one's color. She is pretty though no? Diane |
