...the local AHS chapter had their meeting & sale last Saturday. It was a real a problem- not enough car space...lol
I think I got 6 plants, one tree, and one variegated hanging basket. DH was there, enabling like crazy. When I said sheepishly that that this was going to add up, he said he was happy to fund my hib addiction- after all I could be into diamonds instead! See, I KNEW there was a reason to keep him around...;)
One of the new guys- this is the tree- Peach Schnapps.
They really glow!
And one more that's bloomed so far- Red Dragonette.
I'm not sure who won, because they haven't updated their site and we had to leave, but it was great! The first show I've been to.
If you want to see a few more pics of the show go to http://noteworthyinnola.com/index.php/?cat=3 and scroll down and click the pic.

Can you post the information on the one in Houston on June 10th? Where/when/time, etc....
As you can see by the photo, I got into trouble today. These are two of my new ones.
Thanks

Tess,
You really know how to hurt a guy don't you? LOL I wanted to drive down for the Houston show but gas and time won't let me,maybe in the fall for that show.
Kyle :-)
Wow Tess, looks like you indeed had fun! Great blooms - I wish we had a chapter out here. On second thought, it's probably good we don't - I get in enough trouble without the additional temptation :-)

Karen you can get a few people together and start a chapter the AHS would help with ideas , info etc.
Kyle
That first picture is so incredible. I would just love to go to a hibiscus show. I wonder if there are any in California. I know I would want to walk out with them all. I have no self control.
Tess, your flowers are always gorgeous but I am still trying to comprehend a husband that smiles when he says buy more hibiscus. He IS a keeper.
(does he give lessons?)
