It took three days for the yellow to disappear and for it to be all white.
Drop down white
Liz, I love this one....
Do you like it better yellow or white?
I like the white - you can see the unopened bloom in the back that it starts out yellow.
candida flore plena
I hve this one but the blooms don't drop down like this maybe it doesn't like florida???
brugcrazy you have both of mine - the Logees and the original double white I had.
Liz, Very nice pure white. Are the leaves downy?
Yes they are Barbara. This was the first double I had last year. Then it couldn't make up it's mind whether it wanted to be single, double or triple. I was very disappointed with it last year. Glad I kept it.
You got both from me. The first few blooms stayed wadded up inside. I moved it into less sun and less wind, as Monika said, I guess it was just time.
Liz...it's pretty!!!
Pretty blooms Liz. Hope you are trying a cross with it.
Liz, when I moved mine to some shade, it did that too. The blooms dropped down. They are like yours too in that they start out yellow. The side of the plant in full sun still has wadded up blooms. Isn't that odd?
I seem to have pollinating paralysis this summer. Aside from one cross that probably won't work, I haven't crossed anything. I've got a freezer full of pollen.
I guess I better get my act together and do something.
Liz, what is the difference between the candida flore plena and logee's species?
thanks
Not much of a difference, Kell, one has rippled leaves and the other dentate - can't remember which. Will check tomorrow. I have a picture from last spring when it was still wadded up if you'd like to see it.
thanks Liz, I would love to............
