Here is PLUM FROST.
This bloom is from a 'different' vine than other Plum Frost photos posted.
This vine just started blooming and wow is it ever FROSTED.
Emma
Another of same PLUM FROST bloom
Emma:Gorgeous!plum color.
PLUM FROST from yesterday,
different vine
Emma:Did you grow a mg awhile back called velvet plum?do you have a picture of that one?
Thanks Karla,
I'm even getting blooms from another New MG that is 'almost' Blue Frost
Some of the blooms from the Blue have a heavier Frost
Yes, I did grow Velvet Plum.
Here is one of the photos
Very!pretty!
The white edges looks great!with the velvet plum.
Here is a photo of VELVET PLUM 'being strangled' because the bloom was so huge, the first year I grew it 3 or 4 years ago. Blooms were 7", but this one was 8" because I measured it. HUGE Blooms
Thanks Karla,
Here is one more of Velvet Plum
Huge bloom.Nice dark color.
Sold to me as 'Akatsuki no Umi', late in the day and not a big flower.
We got very cool here last night so I wonder...I really like it and am hoping for more flowers. Not to many buds on it
Sunsmile always make me smile. One is solid and the other has a white edge, so much diversity in these flowers I guess that's why we love them!!
Chocolate
Ronnie:I like those sunsmiles too.Very!pretty! growing in hanging baskets.
Oooo... that is a gorgeous one... will you every release your beautiful creations to the general public, because I'd be first in line to purchase a pack of seeds :)
Brittany
Emma, love the Plum Frost with all that frosting and that gorgeous Blue Frost.
Velvet Plum is impressive too. Can't imagine an 8 inch bloom.
Ronnie, pretty blooms. My no umi changed colors late this afternoon to a color
very similiar to yours.
Emma - The almost solid bloom that you asked about in the post here
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=3864640
is produced by the flaked gene combinations can potentially come out of any of the flaked strains...it can appear almost white or as a light blue with or without the gene fpr spotting >which causes the color to appear somewhere along the primary folds...
The bloom(s) here looks to one one of the "Haru"...either Akatsuki or Hama no Haru...

Interesting color here

Although it looks to be a regular spotted like the "Milky Way" shown in the PlantFiles here
http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/40313/
the presentation of the starring is noticeably different and I've only seen the pattern that you've shown here
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3871163
result from a progressive dilution of the Joyce Cobb' types...
A dilute out of the flaked strains for comparison

Beth - Joyce Cobb was the grandmother of the person who applied that name to the flower...
Arlan - Really nice double speckled...

Such, beautiful flowers
Luvs, Where can I get some seeds for those gorgeous chocolates, I really love those chocolate,
Well I have a few pics, I had to climb up into the raised bed to get these and without a ladder they are still a little far for a good closeup. This group are all growing in my window boxes. Here is the best closeup
Ron . . .
Thanks for the great information!
HollyAnnS
Great MG
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3873767
Emma
HollyAnnS If I have enough seeds I will trade you for this lovely one here!! http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3873767
Luv's, I would love a trade, just not sure if I can come up with the seeds. Let's see how we both do with our seed collecting.
Here is another from the same window box.
Questions, Are both of these blooms comming from the same plant? What is the difference between the two?
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3873767
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3873910
Since you all like my Lav/pink I thought I'd get a new pic. While I was up on the ladder. I've been watching the seed pods on these very carefully.
Just one more this is the window box the Lav/pink are growing in, you can see them growing up the right side of the window.
Great MGs HollyAnn,
Here are a couple of photos of my cross last year of
PLUM FROST X FUJI NO MINE
Same Bloom
PLUM FROST X FUJI NO MINE
HollyAnnS - The 2 blooms you posted might be coming from the same plant but they also might be on separate plants...the blizzard gene can produce both of the bloom types you are showing...
You might be able to trace the vines downwards or from the ground up if you don't have too many planted very close together...
TTY,...
Ron
Thanks Ron, I don't think that would be possible, with these plants. They are part of my window box and besides needing a ladder and getting up into the raised bed below I'm not sure I could follow them and I don't remember how many I planted in that box.
Was thrilled to come across some MG vines at the beach resort last week...even more thrilled to collect a little bag of seeds. Good size bloom with subtle veining...
Chantell - Interesting find here

I'd like to view any other photos you may have but so far it looks to me like you located some
Ipomoea sagittata aka Salt Marsh Morning Glory...

Ron
Chantell,
WHAT A BEAUTY!
I love that MG. . .
Thanks for sharing your photo. . .
Emma
Nice Chantell, would love a trade!!
Great job there Chantell.. seedpicking is good..
Emma,
Those plums are reallly nice, hopefully they will come true for you.
Ronnie, that's one cool looking flower.
Very nice flowers all.
A.
Thanks Antoinette,
I too am hoping they grow back True. . .
Emma
Holly, beautiful flowers. That 1st one is really special.
Emma, amazing Plum Frost cross. Plum Frost is a beauty so any offspring
will be gorgeous too. Plum Frost is one of the prettiest glory's I've ever seen.
Chantell, great find.
Jackie
Plum frost is very pretty. Here is one I`m working on that showed up looking different this morning. It has the folds trying to turn to leaf like structures going into points. It looks sort of like a fountain and it is odd the way it is shaped. I have never seen stripes like this. It looks like a morning glory from Mars.
