Winter Warrior... what a great AV! I love it..It seems like it never stops blooming those wine red blooms.
Lemon Kisses...amazingly true yellow. Huge blooms and nice green foliage. This was the first AV bloom in my new home.:) Cheery lil rascal~
Lovely, both of them.
Ooohh! Even better!
Last one....The beautiful Wrangler's Green Pastures. This one I carried to my new home in my lap!lol

Oh how I have missed seeing your plants. Again, so glad you are back. The pictures are fabulous. What gorgeous plants. Hope you have leaves down or is it too soom from the move.
Most beautiful gorgous plants I've seen in a long time. Show material. They looks so perfect even after their long move !
More! more! more!
MsC those are wonderful. Nice to have you back. More pics please.
Really pretty ever last one of them. Thanks for sharing your pics.
Lovely plants, MsC. Ü

I see why you carried Wranglers in you lap. Forget about everything else, just make sure the palnts are all in! Nice to meet you, MsC!
Whoa, really beautiful plants!!
Stunning!! Wow, great variegation and also outstanding blooms, what a lovely combo! I'm in love with all three of them!
I'm glad you're settled in enough to start posting again.... hope we'll be hearing from you more often again, although I know summer is a busy garden season!
Do all Wranglers look like this one?
Very beautiful. I am partial to the variegated AV. I have Lemon Kisses and now W.
Green Pastures on my wish list. I love them both. Linda
Greetings everyone!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments.
I'm thrilled to share the pics & I have more pics to share.
These AV pics are of the ones I really didn't want to lose in our move.
I will add some info & pics of how we manage to move all the plants & my ZooCrew later. There's a few funny stories that go along & you guys might find entertaining, too. It was a real experience to get it all done.
I learned alot about moving & more than I ever really wanted to know.lol
I want to share how I managed to move so many plants with you guys because it might come in handy to someone else.
I lost very few AV's in my large collection & am still amazed.
I'll try to get it together in the next day or so & post.
Just know that each & everyone of you were missed & I still have to get some of you trades I owe.Thanks for your understanding.
MsC
Me, me. I want to know. Bill retires in less than 3 years and we are moving. Too expensive here. We want to go fishing and raise violets.
Nana,
Stay posted... it will take a bit to get the pics & info together but I think it is very interesting how they all faired.
MsC
Beautiful plants, all of them. The variegated leaves are so pretty!
Thanks for sharing.

"we want to go fishing and raise violets"
Now, there's a great retirement plan!
We will be checking out the Rocky Mountains in Utah.
You have some gorgeous plants! I'm also interested in how you moved them.
nannanavarro- I think that would be an ideal place to retire! I used to live in Orem, but just went back in March to visit my Aunt in Fairview. Wow- some pretty mountains near her house.
And look where this mountain lover has landed...KANSAS!!!! lol
MsC,Beautiful plants! Nice to see you posting again.
Nanna,fishing and raising violets sounds like a wonderful retirement:)
very nice! I love the Lemon Kisses!
good to see you posting again.

I have a son in Provo. Not to far from Orem. And a daughter in Bountiful. AND three grandchildren there. I was born in Salt Lake but have lived in the east since I was 25. Holy Cow!!! that's 40 years in the east.
MsC I will be patient and wait. I will be very interested in your cross country adventures.

I love all of your photos and would love to see more. We were going to move a few months back and I was trying to figure out how to move everything from east coast to CA. But that job went bottoms up so we are still at the same place and I'm glad. But I'm curious to know how you did your move. And your plants are all so beautiful. I have a couple of Wrangler's and they are so pretty. I'm not sure which ones though. I would have to get up and go look. Maybe I will later. Can't wait to see more of your photos.

Critter your AVs are just beautiful! I love them. Thjanks for posting lemon kisses, by description I wasn't sure it was all that yellow but can see by your pic that it is!
You are really an amazing grower!
Thank s April.. I love Lemon Kisses. It has huge blooms for me & gets pretty big as well. Do you have it???
April,You gotta go back a few years to some of my old threads when I was constantly killing my AV's..many many AV suffered death by drowning...lol
Jesse.. I finally posted the AV Moving info~ it's a bit long so it's perfectly ok to start a different thred to chat about it. Hope you enjoy.
MsC
I have this baby growing nice Nanna " Wrangler's Green Pastures. ! I have Wrangelr's Stampede and maybe others you may have :))
Allison, that is wonder to hear! I simply fell in love with it. Your plants have done so well for me. I would love the plantlets.
Everyday I look at it pink in the foliage a pretty baby comes from a gorgous Mom !
I think I got the leaf from Lali. She sent me zillions of leaves and Lorry sent me like a hundred. Then others Eunice, Jannich...and more people sent me wonderul leaves their all growing well so I will have great babies to share !
Morning!
They are beautiful! Just the foliage is pretty enough without the flowers. What beauties!
TFS!
