No I am just madly in love with the Angels and until daves garden only knew of my white one and begged someone for a piece of an apricot one ...I loved them for almost 30 years and had never seen a seedpod ...never even gave it a thought ...oh I had read about pink and yellow singles but thought that was strictly some far off exotic stuff that maybe grew in Queensland, however stumbling across the information available here and all the friendly advice and support decided to try to play birds and bees with my two Angels ...boy was I shocked when it worked! then it got me to thinking "hang on a tick ...why can't we have the variety that is available?" we have a couple of great breeders here but the gene pool seems to be small or we started much later because I am still thrilled to have just flowered my first "Frosty Pink".I just want the Australian gardener to have choices that's all and I believe we can do it here too ...the weather is much kinder in most places although heat could sometimes be a problem but after seeing what the poor folk go through with the snow ...I think we are very lucky. I would one day perhaps like to make an Australian one to name ...not for money but after my dear little angel grandbaby that we lost at 6 months ...just so it would be here long after we have gone,but that is a far off dream ...for now I am just having a big adventure doing something I love
