I wanted to add this to the PlantFiles but don't have a name. Photos taken at the San Francisco Conservatory.
Need help with name for PlantFiles
Rosa Sinensis "Matensis" one of many forms of an original Cooperii plant.Most all have red small flowers, all but the true cooperii which has dark pink flowers with a red center.
Thanks Kyle!
Now I need help actually finding it in PlantFiles, I give up! Sheesh.
And I need that hibiscus, a huge one.
Kell I have all 5 kinds of the cooperi forms. :-)
And we thought Tess was the enabler........
LOL
I might enable, but Kyle is the hibiscus guru...so I guess we corrupt together! I'm even doing my best to enable *him* so we stay on his good side. When he's next next big hibridizer, we'll have big time leverage...rofl...
Speaking of hib gurus, where'd Carlos go? I haven't seen him in ages?
Yeah, where are you Carlos?
Carlos was the one that enabled me to fall in love with June's Joy. LOL
Carlo's is the real Guru in here. he has his act together.Wish he didn't live overseas would be fun to meet him sometime. :-) and talk shop.
Kyle, you are such a show off. Someday I am going to raid your GH. LOL
Ok so where do we get this one? That is one georgeous flower along witht he great variegation!! I think everyone on this forum is an enabler!!!
And where is the PalntFiles page for it so I can add the images??!!
as far as this enabling thing goes, I'm reminded of when my daughter was little.
She'd yell, "DON'T TICKLE ME!", throw her arms up in the air to expose her all of her ticklish bits and wait hopefully...lol...
Like mother, like daugther, I guess: "NO MORE HIBS!" I yell...but maybe I'll just poke around at so-and-so's website and just look around...rofl...
Yep completely agree with you Tess. I would say I resemble my 3 smaller kids who all say
" Don't tickle me" with the biggest grin I have ever seen!!! "Please do not talk me into any more plants"!!!
One of my favorite quotes is Oscar Wilde's: I can resist anything but temptation.
Sue, I didn't see an entry for that one in Plantfiles, I guess you get to be the one to add it! :)
LOVE IT! Works for me!
I can resist anything but temptation.
Sue the plant is at http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/45483/index.html Did you take any cuttings while you were at the conservatory??
Thanks George! And no I didn't but I did get a small piece from another DG member a few months ago. It's growing well and I will have to baby it through the winter.
