She's certainly a pretty one at that!!
Very petite and graceful (ok, petite compared to MEM!). Here she is first coloring up....

A bit darker last night...
And, here she is this morning. There's too much orange in the picture, I'm afraid. I'll take more this evening when the sun goes down to see if that helps.
one more. :)
She certainly is lovely.
I always thought she got darker with afternoon/evening shade. She's a very nice brug. You are going to enjoy her.
One of my favorites, Felicia, and one I have to find again. I lost mine in winter storage along with two others. :( It's fun to watch the flower develope deeper and deeper color...a must have for any brug. collection.

Thank you for the nice comments. I'm already really liking her, because she is getting darker, and is much different from others, and has a ton of buds!!
I know that it is probably too hot (around 90), but I think MM and MEM are going to meet up tonight. ;)
Here she is tonight... much better!!
Ok, have to throw one in of MEM too. :)
*GULP* Lovely! What size of pot is she in?
Teresa, I think the pot is about 6 or 7 gallons, and she desperately needs to be potted up because she's so horribly rootbound!! But, with all of these buds (she's got 5 more that are close to opening, and 6 tiny ones), I'm afraid to disturb her. Maybe she's happy?
Here she is this morning...
one more .... notice the bud that is going to open in the dirt? :(
Liz, that is my absolute favorite picture of all time. You certainly timed that correctly!!
I've heard that if you put MM in partial shade she can/will be darker. I may move her just to test it out, because now she's in full sun.
WOw, I just love MM. I think I need to move just so I can have some great plants.

Oh ya! Absolutely stunning!
