Creamsickle is open ,it is very white,but I do see orange up near the calyx.I had to move it,the furnace was blowing on it and was drying it out.
I love it !
My first double bloom.......
Pollinated with EP
Its open
That's a beauty! Hope you get something good from the seeds.
It is beautiful. Has to go back on my wish list. Bet that helps brighten up our cold dreary days! Congrats CC.

CC,
Very Pretty....hope mine grows up to be just like that.
A beautiful flower. CC you need a good pollinator for it!
very very pretty! when it changes color will you post another pic..........pretty please?
I used EP,is that a good one?
It was that or butterfly and I couldn't make up my mind.....
sounds good to me CC.....LOL!!! I sure hope it takes for you!
Doesn't Tonny want to get a double that has EP's shape?
I think EP will throw more whites than not, cc, but that's if my memory is right:) butterfly would be great too on the next flower.
I looked back CC and it is Tonny that feels an EP shaped double would be very special. Monika has also said she loves EP in a quest for doubles also. If you get whites, you may get the correct form then cross back with a good pink again to get the right color. LOL............. I sound like I know what I am talking about but I do not have a clue!!!
this thread I saved for it talks about creating a double pink....maybe it will help you.

LOL!! knew my memory stinks:)
Yeah! It opened! It's so pretty. Kristi
CC it is so pretty and I too hope mine grows up to be just like yours. Sure hope you get a double pink!
CC,
I am happy with you. Such a good flower. I think EP as pollinator is good for this first crossing.
Wish you much luck to get a pod with many good seeds.

CC, it's beautiful! Wishing you much luck with your pollinating.
CC, it is gorgeous. i think you'love this.also think it'll do better in your weather than mine. sometimes it takes the orange a while.
Congratulations C.C.! I love the double bloom and very long tendrils, which to me look like outstretched fingers :~)
Congrats CC. It sure is very pretty.
I love it cc. Those doubles are so pretty. Good luck!
that is a pretty pic. did it turn colors for you? mine did sometimes, sometimes not. sometimes gorgeous single blooms.
Yeah,its turning,the picture I took of it today didn't show the color real well,seems to be splotchy orange color
Hope you feel better Arlene!
'Creamsickle' is one of my most favourite brugs.
This one only gets better as it grows (o:
Very nice photo!
CC, has the pollination been successful?
No,in fact everything I have tried to pollinate in the GH this winter has not taken,not a pod in sight
I have buds on lots of plants though....but they're just sitting there..........
I am sorry CC. Winterpollinations often dont take...the plant needs its power for surving in winter ( less light and colder temps)it doesnt like to have pods at itself because a pod would need much power for growing.
I knew that but one can always hope and dream........
I WANT SPRING!!!!!
It is SO BEAUTIFUL! Congratulations!!
