Arlan

Joseph and Arlan, you did great!

Joseph, that blue speckled one is the ultimate!

Joseph, The speckled ones are beautiful! Yes, they are the ultimate JMG.

Arlan, The double dianthus is the ultimate dianthus and very special indeed!

Here is one I found in a grow out. It has shredded, double and single flowers all on the same vine with thin variegated leaves.

Thanks, everyone! Arlan, that double dianthus JMG made my jaw hit the table! Wow! I really liked that double JMG you posted too, Karen, incredible flowers all.

Joseph

I think we should all be in a flower show!!! Absolutely incredible pictures here!!

Joseph I love your blue stripe!! (I'm partial to blue)

Arlen your double dianthus is to die for!!

Becky I like the Lady Laura, I have a similar one and it always rips it's so big!!

Beautiful blooms all.

Joseph - This one is the neatest pattern and color! Looks like it's got purple freckles! And lots of them! :-)

Karen (blue) - I am LOL about the the use for an umbrella skeleton! Too funny!

Thanks Elsa and Emma!

Emma - I will certainly mark some of my Lady Lavendar seeds for you!!!
The Youjiro Kongo definitely looked like some Blizzard markings to me too!

The Cocoa Chocolate definitely has a deep plum color. I wondered about that too. I am growing a seed from Plum Gray Smoke. I wonder if the seeds got mixed somehow......

Arlan - GORGEOUS photo! Love the bloom on this one!!! WOW! http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3943514

Karen (gardener2005) - Love this one!!!!!!

Here's another photo of the "blizzard" showing up in the Youjiro Kongo.

Here is another from the same vine. This one is more pink colored. I love the unique blooms on this particular vine!!

My first bloom from the Plum Shadows. Unfortunately, it was torn by a gusty wind.

The Plum Frost blooms were also damaged. But what a beautiful color. I hope I get some more blooms tomorrow that open up completely without damage.

Well,it's September and I'm finally getting some blooms.Here is Yoinotsuki.

The color of this morning's Lady Laura just causes me to drop my jaw! It is such a beautiful color of pink.

Yoinotsuki often throws extra petals.

Fujimusumi,one of my favs

HUGE glistening pink from mix.Early morning

later in day

golgi - Yours are beautiful! That's really interesting about the Yoinotsuki extra petals!

Heaven knows who this is-just a stunning color I've not seen before.

This is a new one from last years Asuka seeds

Becky,
I'm thinking you may have the seeds switched on the Cocoa Chocolate and the Plum-Gray Smoke. We will see on your next blooms.
Really love your Youjiro Kongo Blizzard Blooms

Your Plum Shadows
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3945694
has remained True
But the Plum Frost did not.
Are you sure I sent you Plum Frost or Velvet Plum?
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3945705

I just checked my records and it looks like I sent you a couple of seeds that I wasn't sure if they were Velvet Plum or the Violet Bloom it threw last year.

The Bloom you have looks like something that I got from one of my Velvet Plum seeds last year.
Velvet Plum stayed True for me for 4-years [and is continuing to], except that last year one of the vines threw a Lilac-Lavender Bloom like you got. My guess is that it has reverting back to one of the parents. Looks like Fuji Musume to me similar to the blooms I'm getting.
VERY PRETTY

See what I mean about Lady Laura. Amazing all of the different blooms that I am seeing. Now I wish I had grown out more seeds.
I need to look up the INCREDIBLE blooms that I have gotten of Lady Laura. Drop Dead Gorgeous. I'll post them later.

Here is one of my blooms from last year of Plum Shadows

Emma

GAIL!

How in the world are you ???
I am so happy to see you posting. Your MG's, as always, are GORGEOUS!

Really like your Yoinotsuki, and your Glistening Pink is very unusual.

Emma

Joseph - The blue speckled gets my vote too...nicest one I've seen so far of that type...

And Boy are you lucky(!)...You actually got a speckled(!) out of the shikanoko(!)...

Becky - nice living day-glo color blending...
http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/31407/

interesting color and throat 'hood'
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3945694

Gail (!) - So Good to have you back on board(!)

Nice deep rich blue and fine creamy-white spray around the throat
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3945723

Please post it to the PlantFiles entry
http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/133768/
there is no "You no Tsuki" in there yet

All the blooms are special(!)...

TTY,...

Ron

Beautiful blooms Becky, love the colors. The Plum Frost is gorgeous.

Golgi, the Yoinotsuki is striking. Love the Fuji musumi and the unknown blue glory with pink throat, really nice.

Jackie

Thanks for the kind words.Been away for awhile.Lots of "life" happening.It is my impression that my Henka is responsible for alot of my crosses.The seed may produce a bloom with some of the original color but the form is often Henka's with the infusion of Henka's electric blue.Just an observation.

Gail, nice to see you posting!! I really like your Yoinotsuki!!

Becky the lavender one is real nice!!

Seiryu with a small amount of streaking.

Fuji no Ao
First ever bloom for me. :) (Seeds courtesy of Ron.)
Deb

Deb, that's a beauty!!!!

Beth and Deb, real beauties!!!

Beth, Luvsgrtdanes: Thanks. I'm new to MGs and I meant to say that there are some real beauties pictured here. I have a weakness for the electric blues, but they're all just gorgeous.
Deb

Beautiful flowers, wow those blues!

Deb - beautiful - love that rich color!! http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3947484

Here is a picture from last year of the pollen parent of the pink x purple blizzard.

This is a variation appearing on some of my youjiros.
