Two days later the blooms have darkened up even more. I am taking these photos as our temps are 90F degrees to show people what a good warm weather brug can do even when conditions are most disagreeable.....You can be sure that i will be collecting as much pollen from this baby as possibe because she will be an invaluable asset in my breeding program where my ultimate goal is to get us southerners some brugs that can take what mother nature throws at us....as an added bonus...for whatever reason Butterfly has a tendency to throw Yellow/Orange babies into it's offspring.....Let's hope for a good fall/winter hybridizing season

Edit.....the reason for the propensity to throw yellow/orange in it's offspring is the Ocre in its background
