Here is the picture of Ollie....Betty Marshall X Charles Grimaldi Hybrid...seed from LBJ.
Ollie is a cream color with a greenish streak.

How big is the flower Glory? Out of all my cuttings ... Ollie and Eric's Dr.D look the best.
My Dr. D. didn't make it. It was a whopper of a cutting. the one that needed a chain saw. Just no luck, so I'll have to beg from someone later on.
Brugie, My Dr.D is growing a nice shoot.I'll be happy to give you a cutting as soon as it's big enough.
Thanks Snow, Would like that. I'll have to remember to give you a quick email when our weather and yours is good for shipping. I've got so many notes around here that I don't know what to look at first. By the way, what color is Dr. D.? If it is another yellow, I really don't need it. I'm really full with yellow. LMK.

Brugie, Eric told me that Dr.D is Dr.Suess x Ecuador Pink.
I didn't measure Ollie but It seems to be about the same size as my Frosty Pink.
Snow,
I believe that I just read that Dr.D. is a peach color, so hang on to a cutting for me. Maybe next fall when I start sending out cuttings. I'm going to weed out this year. No need to have Chs. G., Dr. Suess, and JO if they are all basically the same. Personally, I'm not all that crazy about Frosty Pink either but will see if I like Ins. Pink and decided between the two. I'm really interested in the darker colors now. My tastes change from year to year as the new brugs come out. Keep in touch!
Will do Brugie. :)
Brugie, did you cut your DrD into pieces? Just curious ... I left mine whole. It looked silly... big stump in a little pot... but now it has leafed out nicely and looks great.
Poppysue, I did cut mine into two pieces. I don't think it would have stood up without help. I put one in vertical and one horizontal and neither of them did a thing. The bark peeled off one of them, I think it was the one that was laying down. I've rooted large pieces before, but this one just wasn't to be.
Glory,
This one is stunning...you have me drooling..
