Hi Guys! Great pictures! Michael, I'm so glad that people are sending you replacements and gifts and things. That is good news. You are such a nice person that you deserve all the gifts that you get. I should have a few for you this spring as well. Let me know if you still need the DSP in the spring. I saw that Roger said he could send you one in the spring. Are you trading cuttings of Mrs. Malestrom yet? Let me know as I would love to trade you something for it. Your white looks like it could be San Germain. I had an Aztec Gold rot on me last winter as well. I've also had cuttings that just refused to root and took over a year to rot too! I'm very tempted by Brad's auctions too, but I have spent a fortune already this year just on fertilizer, soil, miticides, pesticide gear, and plumies that I am going to hold off buying anything more for a while and just enjoy the ones that I have. I have several unknowns about to bloom, and those are always fun surprises. Smith's Candy Apple and Gulf Stream are the same plumie; the scent is faint peach.

Chantell, your babies are so beautiful! I love Rotts. My Duke is part Rott. Don't be sorry that you got Duke because it is beautiful, and you could really enjoy the fragrance. I think you would really enjoy Kauka Wilder as the scent is strong and fantastic, and I would highly recommend that one for you. Along with Miami Rose/Key West Pink and Celadine, Kauka Wilder is right there at the top of the list for fragrance.
