The many faces of Tigerama.

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

So far this is a most entertaining flower.

This is the second day for the one on the left. And the darker one is brand new.

Kell that is a beautiful pic you have there. I like the two faces of Tigerama. Great seeing you and Sue at the show. It was smaller but most folks seemed to have had a good time. Do you think the Cow Palace could make the food any worse?

And so expensive for what it was too, David. You know I love to see you but you are getting too expensive! Though thankfully so much better than the food. LOL. If that made sense.

Gee Kyle, it varies so much just with in a day or 2, I can't wait till summer hits.

Life is good Gordo!

Hey pretty Sue, we should have gotten them all!

Hi Kell

I know it's expensive and it seems that many of the most popular plant folks are leaving the show. It's a bummer I think. First the Perkins Rose folks left then Cottage Gardens now Monrovia (not that I'm a mega coperate kind of guy) but it's left the show with few plants guys and mainly bulb people. I think I'm one of the only flowering shrub guys at the show still. It's a shame and when you consider you pay $8 for parking and then $20 per head to get in it's expensive. I fill out a questionnaire every year and I tell them the same thing..."You need more plant people or you will lose the garden folks who come every year" and they tell me the same thing...they are trying to attract them but they make it very difficult on vendors both the Cow Palace and the flower show people. So, unfortunately I don't have much hope that they will attract more plant people. As an example of what I'm talking about there were very few plant brokers at the show. When I first started they were all over the place. Ok, enough doom and gloom. Enjoy your blooms.

yes, I noticed the smaller number of vendors and was disappointed, it used to take us until late evening to get thru them all and this time we were done by 3 and I only bought 4 plants.

I justed added more pictures of the Show on the Calif forum, under Deviant Denizen's thread.

I missed writing down the name of this one David.
