Pink Beauty

It finally bloomed .

Please tell me its the real thing........

I don't know, but it suits me! Brugie can tell you what hers' is like, if different from yours.

I think she got hers from me...LOL

maybe not..........

I could tell you that it is Pink Beauty, but right now it looks like the one I got from B. and I really think it is Rosamond. Mine looks just like the Rosamond in Monika's first book. Maybe she will come by and tell you what it is. I'm too confused on the PB/Rosamond ID thing now. I'm anxious for mine from you to bloom so I can put them side by side to compare. Aside from that, she sure is pretty. I didn't think mine had a lot of fragrance. Seemed like the calyx came down further on mine too. I'd take this one in a second. It will be some time before I see bloom on either of mine. Isn't that greenhouse a life saver and a real plus for growing your tropicals?

I keep asking myself why I put off getting one for so long.........

I'll never be with out a GH EVER AGAIN!!!

Mine came from Hodniks a few years ago,hate to think he sent a mismarked brug....but I guess it happens......

Is this the first time you have seen it bloom? I remember Monika saying that PB was a slow grower and Rosamond was robust. My PB/Rosamond from B. grew like crazy last year, but the one from you didn't bloom. I'm thinking that until we get bloom from both of them side by side, we may not know. Susie has both of them. Wish she would put side by side pictures in one frame and post them on here.

Yup ,this is the FIRST time its bloomed,and it almost never sends out any side shoots so I haven't really gotten to propagate it.Didn't want to cut it........

CC, no matter which one it is, you have a beauty there.
I was thinking that Monika said back months ago that Rosamond had a larger flower than PB. Does anyone remember that . . or am I mistaken.

CC, is this the one I got from you?? If so, it's not Rosamond, it is Pink Beauty. The main reason I say so is that Susie saw mine in bloom, said it's not the same as hers, and her Rosamond pollen worked on my PB.

YEAH!!!!!!
Cool,thanks

So pretty CC............. it is sure pink and it definitely a beauty! Love it.

Very lovely! Was sure worth the wait.

I really like it no matter what it is! Pretty!

Beautiful! How long did you have to wait for it to bloom?

almost 2 years.....
