Sunny Breeze

I think,tag missing,but I knew it was sunny something!!!

Wow, I love this one (regardless of it's name) The clear yellow and white make it so cheery looking. Most of the yellows have red in the throat.

I have 2 other yellows,but I think this is my favorite one.

Like that yellow Tropicman, it has a cleanliness & cheerful look to it like MerryMary said, bet you can see this one from far away. It so hot and humid down here that none of my hibs have blooms on them, just have to enjoy your for now, thanks.

p.s. try cross pollinating it with your "Chiffon Breeze" you might get something nice.

Yes,it is very close to chiffon breeze,little larger in flower,and a little more darker yellow,the trick is to get them to bloom at the same time. I have a new hibbie that should bloom tomorrow the flower bud is so huge,I think when it opens it will make the plant fall over on its side!!! Its a red one!

Nice... I love the subtle color....

Super bloom tropicman. The yelow and white is a great combination for sure.

Thanks,Might try a little crosspolly with it!

One of my other yellows

And right next to these yellows is Mirandan Wind

Tropicman, do you have a red, pink or white hib you could pollinate "Mandarin Wind" with, you might consider this colors to get some nice shaded versions of her.

I used the bright red one today and pollinated her,so will wait to see if she took!
The cuttings I had going for you croaked,I had them in perilite and some in Sphagnum moss,I used rootone,but I think it was tooo old to work,will have to pick some new up.

Well like saying goes, if at first you don't succeed, try and try again, I've been trying to root some cutting of my own and the same thing has happened, it must be all this temperature changes we've been having these past year, climate is very unstable lately. Lets see if your next attempt succeeds, I'm sure not giving up on my cutting, have new cutting already planted again.
Hope you get lost of seeds from her from the crossing you did, something nice has to come out of it.

I hope so!
We had a cool front go through drop the temps by close to 10* and the humidity fell below 30%,the flowers didn't want to fully open today!
