A quick Hi. Busy day here on the farm, the crew worked all day getting the Christmas Store set up and I did all the posters and signs, etc. Next week I need to go thru the inventory and price the wreaths and make more cemetery cones.

I do want to tell Gita, you were so right, this baby opened today and it is a salmon for sure. The woman that gave it to me said it was orange with a pink center. Do you see any pink in this baby? I sure don't . The flowers are beautiful and I have dozens of cuttings growing from this one, so I am happy about that. I listed it on eBay and had to revise the listing to read Salmon. I need to make all new tags for it now also. Darn it, always something.
Of course, the price was right for me...........it was free..........so I can not really complain.

The orange zygo I have is more salmon to me also, but that is like the pink and magenta. It depends on who is selling it what they call it. I got it from Hirt and it just says Orange. I pray it was not a patented plant but the one I got was not marked patented. I try so hard to stay away from anything patented because of selling so much on eBay and the Market Place.

When i first tried to get on DG this morning, the site was down and I told them on FB I thought it was down. I am so glad someone else had the problem also.

I think that is about it. Must go and get something to eat. I am tired. Hugs to all. Have a great week. JB

Ruby, I am glad the info helped. It is really difficult to decide which it is until you find what you are doing to your own plants.
