Now I see why everyone loves the EP.
EP color
Great color. Your cooler temps really help deepen the color.
Not so cool here now Shirley. It was in the 90's yesterday and already real hot today. It was supposed to be in the 70's today but doesn't look like it will.
Snow. . EP sure is a pretty one and I really like the thin flower and that rosy pink.
Pretty.. I can't wait on mine.......
oh Snow, am green with envy. Congratulations. lovely show of colors. if only i could have mine bloom :(.
All I can say is if my tree in the back is NOT an EP I will die! I was out again last night at 1:30AM with a flashlight looking a the bud that is starting to show little whiskers.
Yours is just gorgeous Snow, absolutely beautiful!
Cala, this is the cutting you sent me in Dec.
Wow! That cutting must have been powerful, blooming already, none of mine are blooming yet. During the 5 wks. of 90+, any blooms coming, fell off, I may never see any blooms this year.
OH MY GOD...........I need yours SNOW....NOW........ ROAD TRIP..........rip it up and bring it on!!!
Your flowers look great snow, mine dont equal yours this year. I just came into the house, was working until dark. There are almost no buds. The new EP x Rothkirch seedling has its second flush, nearly 30 flowers opened at once but they couldnt withstand the storm, we had for almost a week. At the moment,its very cool, especially at nights, we got the heater on in the house. On Saturday, temperatures above 30°C is expected again. Its no Brug year here, thats for sure.
Monika, Thank you for the compliment. Our weather has been crazy too. A couple days of temps in the 90'sF and then down to the 60's and 70's. It's been up and down all summer.
Between the weather and the insects it is a battle every day to grow these but in the end they are worth it.I hope you are feeling better. It's no fun to be ill especially during the summer.
Snow, it is gorgeous.
See, I did get one right, lol.
