Beginning to look like Monikas'. That one is SUPER!
Finally, one of my own...
Shirley, you definitely need to name that beauty!
Okay you guys.....give me some ideas. I'm just not good with naming things. I know it needs a pretty name, but it is hard to find one anymore. My last name is Morr and I thought about calling it Forevermorr, but that is kinda corny. HELP!!
Evermorr PinK!
Wow, I'm gone for a few hours and pinks bursting out everywhere. It's pretty Shirley.
Forevermorr - I like that Shirley!
So do I Brugie. You did so well!
You sure? I'd hate to stick it with something that I can't remember..........LOL!! I'm going to go to bed. I think I'm tired because of the heat. Tomorrow!!
Write it down Shirl. It is one I certainly would remember if I made anything like it!
Shirley,
Forevermorr Pink sounds good! Congrats on your new hybrid, the color is wonderful!
Thanks everyone......I wanted to tell you all that we were hotter yesterday that I thought. Got to 100 here at our school net station according to the weatherman and today will be the same with a heat index of 105-115. Guess I better get started watering. Going to be a long, hot day.
Shirley that is really gorgeous. I would be excited too. Tickeled pink may be a name to concider. I am happy for you.
Thanks Mary, I'll decide one day and post something. By the way, I'll get your plants out to you as soon as we get past this heat spell. I don't want to be out in it any longer than I have to. Hope you weren't in a hurry for them.
Shirley, I had to look at your creation again this morning. I am so happy that got something special.
Thanks Shirley, No I am not in a hurry. It is hot and humid here to. I don`t stay out unless I have to.
Cool, another Mary who is a brug lover and lives close! Hello busybee
Hi Mary, Nice to see someone else from La. flicker is in Covington,La. She is a very nice lady. All of these contrary Marys in one place, watch out.
Shirley, a beautiful brug. Congratulations. I am really impressed that it takes the heat so well. That is really important to me for a brug to do this - and yours does and is beautiful too!
Thanks everyone. I've just come in from transplanting some cuttings and I'm wringing wet. It is horrible out there today. Looked at my baby this morning and she is hanging on just fine. Maybe two days of 100 will make her pout. Tonight will tell the story. Roz, I think we need to move to a cooler climate. Want to go too, Frannie? LOL!! Well, I'm off to visit some of the other forums. Have a great day everyone.
It really is beautiful Brugie!! I like the name too.
Hey S. Come to Ohio, it is 73 here right now, down in low 60's at night. Beautiful sleeping weather!
Isn't it nice Hibiscus??? I shut off the a/c yesterday and am enjoying the cooler dry weather. How nice!
It's nice here too. Not had the heat this summer that we usually do.
You guys are lucky. We are getting it all in Iowa. It is probably going to be a bad winter, but it doesn't bother me staying inside then. I just hate it that I can't be outside now and still be half way comfortable. Wish I had the Ohio weather. Susie, will you have HOT temps in Tex. where you are moving? Worse than Tennessee?
By the way.....this one will now be known as ForeverMorr. I know people will think I can't spell, but............oh well. We know why it is spelled that way.
Edited to change the way I wrote ForeverMorr.

I just love it, the flower and the name.
I like the name Shirley. Who cares if they think you can't spell? LOL You made a lovely brug. I'll be at the end of the line waving my hand when it gets big enough to share. :)
We have not had too much of the horribly hot weather. We have had so much rain though!! The humidity has raged some days but it is quite pleasant right now. It got down to like 63 last night. Great sleeping weather-too bad I was at work!
ForeverMorr
. . . . . purfect!
Very Beautiful!
Love the name! If you get the proper credit as the hybridizer, they'll understand the true meaning. Keep me in mind for cuttings, too!
I love it Shirley! It's very pretty.
Congrats Shirley....what's left for me to say? It's Gorgeous!!! YOU have REALLY made ONE BEAUTIFUL cross!!! I LOVE everything about it...ESP. the name! Of all the seeds from this cross...I am so happy that it was YOU who grew the PRIZE. Here is FM's sister. While the color seems a bit darker and more into the orange shades...it is still quite pretty. The tendrils are shorter and the color isn't uniform like your 'baby. The fragrance is not as intense as...let's say... PB but very pleasant non-the-less. However...this one does hold up well in all this heat and humidity. This is day #3 for this flower. And it is still hanging in there. Good job, girl!!!
Renee
Forgot to mention in my edit that I've got to get a better camera for close-ups! Mine stinks!

Drool, drool! Renee that one almost looks red! I love both! That one would be perfect by my pond with Forevermorr out front. he he he Okay, dreaming. They are gorgeous!!
Shirley,
I love your picture and I love your new brug, All is so clear and colorful.
Shirley I love it. The 2nd picture is even better than the first. I love the name too!
Raspberry Sherbet!! This has got to be one of the best crosses yet - congrats!
Rene, how could you wait three days to post! what great color you have there!
Perfect name for it Shirley!!!!
I agree will Arlene, Foo Foo on you Renee for waiting 3 days!
Arlene...I was waiting for Shirley to post her pics first. With her being the hybridizer...I guess I thought mine should wait. There are quite a few more buds that should be opening soon. Hopefully those flowers will also have that same depth of color??? Who Knows??? Maybe she'll decide to keep and name this one also???
Root....FOO FOO ? That's what my father used to call the perfume my sister and I would put on for our Sat. night dates!! LOL
Ruby, I can't help but laugh because that is what my Daddy use to call our perfume also. There were 5 girls in my family and he would always tease us about putting on too much foo foo. It was thoughtful for you to wait 3 days to post. It has such a pretty dark color.
Frannie....You have mail.
Renee, I'd still like a cutting from your plant. Would like to try to get some longer spurs on it with that deep color. Thanks friend!! Why don't you stick some Butterfly pollen on the next one or maybe we can find some L'Amour for you to use. I don't think it would increase the length of the spurs though.
