Here is another plant I have that is supposed to be Frost Pink, but it bloomed darker. Do I have Frosty or something else? Yes, both blooms are on the plant. The darker bloom was a second day bloom while the white was just opening.
Is there a difference?

Burgie,
According to Vicki Harding(LBJ) you have a Frosty Pink

Read what she says about the color.
Kyle looked at this one too and said it was Frosty, but the blooms from both plants look different. Oh well, you have five and I'm going to catch you.

Brugie, will pull out pics or take more tomorrow. all i know for sure is i have two different pinks!! you probably have both frosty pinks, sure think there are 2 called that.... does this one have the ruffly leaves?
I think the first one has more ruffle to the bloom. I have to keep them straight by thinking where each was planted. It also bloomed white and then the next morning would be pale pink. This one was different. Again, it might be the temps or soil conditions. The pale one was planted in a half barrel and this one in a plastic 7 or 8 gal. planter. The pale pink didn't get as much fertilizer due to where it was located. Easier to just turn on the hose. Beats the heck out of me. Maybe I should quit worrying about them and just enjoy.
Yes, i have looked at leaves until i am ready to be taken to the funny farm, but which FP did i get cuttings from? LOL! hope it is one i don't have!
Brugie, Yours looks like a darker pink than the one I have which I got from Arlene. Maybe it's the cooler temperature here. I'll post a picture of the bloom.
Arlene you got the lighter one.
