Your Pale Pink Kawaii here http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=5930800 Mine too ended up to be Pale Pink that I grew from the same seeds I sent to you. When I grew the 'Red' Kawaii, that was the only Kawaii MG I grew that year, so no chance for any Pinks to get mixed up. I grew again this year and again got from 5 plants, the Pale Pink with Picotee edges on most. One was a Pale Pink with no Picotee edge, and one was a Pale Pink Picotee with Kawaii-type 'Variegated Leaves'. All of the others had the Solid Green leaves.....go figure! Your Rosy-Red MG from seeds from me - here http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=4668991 I am guessing from my description to you that 'Blooms like Crazy' tells me this is one that I grew in 2006 that was a sport of '??', or possibly a stray seed. I will need to go back to my handwritten notes to see what I planted originally that produced this MG. I've never grown this one before and have not yet grown it out again. It is different [I think] from the Wine and Roses or SOHs that I've grown because the bloom was much smaller. If I remember, about 2" to 2-1/2" bloom. Do you remember if yours had small blooms? Also, I think I still have the list of seeds I sent to you that I will locate and see if I can figure it out from that as well. I have grown several MGs over the years that I have not yet gotten an ID on and refer to them as 'Rosy-Red'. Most have Picotee Edges, and this one that I think you grew is the only one I can recall that did not have a Picotee Edge. Also, since this was such a prolific bloomer, it would be grand growing alone and away from any other MGs. Below are some of the original photos from 2006 of the 'Rosy-Red' with small blooms and Solid Green Tri-lobed leaves, for you to compare. Emma |
