Beth,

Be sure to let us know what your blooms do. Are you sure it was 'Plum Frost' that I sent you.
It may be a bloom that I named 'Plum Shadows' which is a sport of 'Plum Frost'
All three photos above are 'Plum Shadows'.

So, maybe you will get the 'Real Thing'. BUT - What ever those seeds do, they WILL be awesome.
There are some VERY strong genes in this strain and it continues to amaze me at all of the different types, colors, and styles of blooms that I get.

Incidentally, this one single seed that gave me 'Plum Frost' came from one single seed that didn't grow true and was instead 'Plum Frost', that came from Japan. Now, that was confusing!


Karen,

No that isn't 'Plum Frost'
But it IS 'Awesome'.
Love your Bloom...

I have gotten some very nice 'Plum Frost' Blooms since the original, but when I re-grow them they are not 'True'.
This could possibly be one of the types that may skip generations that Ron was talking about. Not sure yet. In the meantime, I am still trying.

I did get 'Plum Frost' from three different vines last year and once again tagged the seeds to grow again this year to see what they do.

Here is one of the Blooms from the Original 'Plum Frost'
