Hi Jeanne. Thanks for looking. Do you grow any of these in your great conservatory? They would bloom for you all winter. PS I am not emailing you guys till my email problem gets cleared. I just now notified AOL. I hate AOL.

Thanks Karen. San Francisco is just a great place look at all the sights. I am so blessed to live here. We go in to SF to eat at least once if not twice a week. I am so spoiled. I have been pleasantly surprised with Pride of Acadiana. I have gotten lots of blooms and most are fully double, just huge and so 3 dimensional.

Hi sweet Brin. Good to see you here too.

Alice, after some looking online, my High Voltage must be wrongly tagged. I will look for the right name today. My Haight Ashbury is in a 5 gallon pot. I am afraid to put in the ground. I need to see what temps it can take. And YES, it is always thristy! LOL

Cat, I wish Stolen Kiss didn't fade. It really comes out PINK and then slowly fades. Mine are lasting 4 days now, it has been so cool here. How long do yours last?

Amanda, you are so right. Forever Young is a floppy plant. It has no form. And I didn't help by abusing it. I got mine at an expensive nursery too, to make it hurt more. I so wish our Home Depot would get some of these in. I have never seen them here. Only in NJ at my Mom's Home Depot a few years ago did I see them at a HD. They had tons and great ones too.

Here is another photo of what dreams are made of. We went to Napa Valley for the weekend. Had the best time. We enjoyed a taste of the bubbly at Mumm Napa. We are members there and oh what fun. Here is a glass of DVX, 1999 bubbly. So good we had to buy a few bottles to take home. Fun videos on here of the grape harvest. http://mummnapa.com/home.cfm?month=1&day=24&year=1976&_send_...
