It is getting close. This is sure big. BF X Rosamond seedling. Hey Susie!!
Please all think dark pink!
Oh I can't wait. I have everything crossed for you. Hope it's a keeper.
Oh my goodness Kell......I know it is going to be a beauty. Now I am going to be anxious to see this one open and I can only imagine how you are feeling.
It is not even summer here and also I never get dark pink here! But I can always hope!!
This is the most exciting part of it all! A brand new brug!
Yes HOPE, I am hoping with you Kell :)
if it turns out light pink you can send it to me & let's see if it will darken up! LOL
Wow Kell! It looks like it has nice long tendrils :-) I bet it's gonna be dark pink!!
Fingers crossed Kell .... so exciting!!
I'm doing the your pink chant for you......
frosty!Frosty!FROSTY!!!!!
Oh?
You weren't looking for a frosty?
looks frosty to me........giggle.......
You'll love it no matter what. Nice........
CC, you are so mean to me! LOL. I am finally Frosty free. My DH last weekend slaughtered a huge one. I was going to give it away and I walked out to the front and it was chopped up in little pieces.
The trouble is this new one could be a dark pink and I may never know in my climate!!!
Kell, I had a seedling of Rosamond X L'Amour that bloomed light pink late last fall and I took cuttings to see what it would be like this year and let the seedling go. No room...you know how that is. Will see this summer if it is any darker. If not, it is gone. If you get a basal shoot, you should send it to someone in a cold climate, like CC, and let her see if it will be darker. Of course, that doesn't help you any. You may have to grow more red sangs for color. Heck, every picture you take is beautiful and I sure would love to have mine bloom as nicely as yours.
Better yet Brugie, everyone that makes dark, dark pinks should send it to me to see if it passes the cool weather test! LOL
LOL...good thinking kell !
BTW...what is BF ?
Butterfly, Margie. A beautiful pink that is attainable too!!!
OH, OK kell....I think I need Butterfly!
I cannot wait until it opens and I'm thinking dark (((*PINK*))) !!
"DARK PINK", "DARK PINK", "DARK PINK", Alikazaaam, Alikazoooo, pink,pink,pink and so are you!!!!.......hows that....
:o)
Dee
My fingers are crossed!!
Bonnie
I am saying the dark pink chant for you too Kell. I think that seedling needs put on a Fed-X truck and sent to me quick so it will be a Texas Pink!
or to San Jose, by car...and it will be San Jose Pink !!!
Picturelady, I live off of San Jose Ranch Road, maybe we could share it!
How hot does it get in San Jose? I do not think you will get the dark pinks either Margie in San Jose! Sorry to say!
Susie this is yours!
Kell, I think your pinks are plenty dark, your Rosamond is just wonderful!!! SLike
Ooh! Good luck Kell! Im also thinking dark pink for this one!
oooooooh, I missed that it was one of my babies!! I need to go out there and tell my seedlings to get in gear and grow or I'm going to feed them to the gators!
I will show them a picture of their sibling in CA and tell them that's how they should look right now!
WWWhat I live in South Texas toooo......don't forget about me, and then there's bragnanny, mscritterkeeper, moonlighting, we are all just right off the bay....... LOL...... :o)
Dee
kell...don't be too quick to skip S.J. !!!!!!!
It gets hot here...over 100 too many days of summer for me! I think your plant would love it here!!!
I hope she is starting to unwrap a little tonight. Don't forget to take pictures of her coming out!!
Is it opening yet????? By the way Michigan can give you a dark pink Kell ....

Thanks so much you guys! More fun waiting together!!
But I do want to know who is thinking yellow out there?? LOL. It is looking very yellow. But then L'Amour is very yellow at this stage also!
No movement today, maybe a little bigger.
wishing dark pink real hard for you.
Thanks Donna!!!
Prayers of Pink for you Kell...
okay.. you forced me into it... just for you Kell... I'm going to do the "dark pink" brug dance tonight at midnight.. got to find my pink fuzzy slippers.. my drop-seat red flannel jammies, and my purple rhinestone cowboy hat.. hopefully the neighbors will not see me out there....
Man.........I was hoping it would be starting to open today. It does still look a little tight around the pleats in the skirt.
Oh my gosh, maybe it's a double...ya think? Could it be Kell....huh, huh.......I hope, I hope.... XXXXXX, fingers, toes and eyes......LOL :o)
Dee
I am thinking PINK, PINK, PINK !!!
Don't even mention the Y_ _ _ _ _ word, please!!! We will not even hear of it!!
PINK, PINK, PINK, PINK, PINK.....
OH MY Miss Munché.............. I will not ask you if you plan on dropping that seat!! Mooning the moon! LOL! I sure hope you do not expect me to ever return the favor. LOL!
Gee Brugie, you are observant. I had not noticed that. I just peeked out there. It is 7:30 here. The tendrils are wider apart but still looks pretty much the same as last night.
LOL Dee, that would be a miracle and so far I have done nothing in my life to deserve such divine intervention! LOL
