here's the second, marked Eric's special, 99% sure of that I'll double check in the morning. I've been waiting for a week for this one to open, I thought it was stuck.

there's one more, couldn't get close enough to take a picture. Cala, remember the one that had so much pink on it before opening? it's the one, will get pictures in the morning.
thanks Eric!!!

Are these totally new ones tiG??? You really hit the lottery didn't you?? To be honest I am sick with envy. I used to like you so much, now I can't stand you!!!!! Terrible what envy will do! LOL

Woodsville, NH(Zone 4a)

Wow. You're certainly getting a bunch of beautiful Pinks.

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

totally new:) the one that I don't have pics of yet was showing lots of pink on the unopened buds today. These two never showed any pink before they opened. There are 5 or 6 pinks that I've never posted, light or too similar to others. I was totally convinced that the second one here would be white. now I have more to dig and bring in!!!
you love me and you know it!

LOL tiG!!!

Are these Eric's Isabella x Butterfly

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

no, he also had a different batch that were ? x bfly, I'm thinking these were also from when the tags were pulled but can't say that for certain. I have some of those but the flower is totally different.

Jeanne asks as she has her pollen brush out and ready!

Kell, can you believe she wouldn't let me touch her seedlings??? Can you believe that she only had 2 whites in the whole yard? I thought she needed more white, you know, make the colors look brighter, give some contrast.
TiG, I think that one that was pink in the bud will be pretty. Wish the temps were warmer so it would have it's true colors.

this is EK14, tag marked ?xBly. it's a definite keeper to see what next year will bring. It holds this shape all day and the color is much darker than most of my pinks blooming right now. so we'll see.

this is first EK15, the one I couldn't get last night. It's Dr D x EP seedling. It's leaning more towards a peachy pink that baby pink like the others.

Cala, you mean you got not 1 snip from her new enviable pinks??? She is guarding them that close huh? I can't believe the routine you made Lauren practice to divert tiG's attention did not work. It is going to take dynamite to get a few cuttings of those away from tiGlet!
Maybe scare tactics will work:
Hey Little tiGlet............ you better give a few of your bestest friends and 1 to your enemy, cuttings of your best new ones JUST IN CASE they do not like their winter abode and really wanted to go to Hawaii to winter over instead.

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

she's fibbing!!! tried to cut on Pink Beauty for her, no (it's full of seedpods to the tips, so she spared me). Tried to share lots!!! but seee.......so many of them came from her!!! and this way I know she'll come back!

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

she does not want PB tiG, she wants the alphabet ones!!! WE ALL WANT THE ALPHABET ONES!!!

(Zone 7b)

hmm.. what's the alphabet ones? :)

Lima, OH(Zone 5a)

Hey, if you ever get tired of just seeing pink all the time, will trade you for yellows and a "purple" one, oops that's a Datura......I tried!

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

lol!!! let's see how they grow and what the summer color is:)

FSH, TX

Good to see some of your pictures Tig. I can't say whether or not I will be able to get on this computer at work here again to access the internet, but it has been pleasureable looking at all the pictures.
