Blooms for 10-02-07

First one up, was so pretty, I brought it in the house.
Tarantella

Cherry Cola. So petite.

a very sopping wet and soggy Madame Dupont

Gator Pride.
With tropical storm winds and non stop hail - rain, Her bush looks even lovelier.

The same for Envie :)

And, last for today, my ever blooming Voodoo Queen

PS...my backyard is flooded worse than in July. Every time the puppies go out, I have to wash them. They both LOVE swimming in mud holes!
At least all my hibs are in pots. Again, and I re-iterate, I am sooooooo glad they are all in pots!

Hey Cat, At least you hibs are in pots now and thats 1 less worry. Hope you dry out soon!!!
PS you really need to wish that storm into the atlantic and not the gulf LOL

By the way Very nice Blooms!!!!!

Erin Rachael

El Capitolio Sport

and a 6th Dimension trying to look like a butterfly

Great pictures, Cat and Robert. I sure like the deep color of Gator Pride. I forgot to check mine on the front deck today. Robert, your Curly Top really is cute. I love the edges of the petals, the way they curl and show the back side.

Night Runner, and Gator Pride. These were already on my list to buy, so I've made it through the day without having to add more names to my buy list. Lol

Tussee

Yeah, Tussee, but I haven't posted mine yet, lol! (j/k)

Cat, I'm so glad yours are all in pots so you don't have to worry so much now - your blooms are stunning, especially considering your weather! I like that little Cherry Cola better each time I see it, and Gator Pride looks marvelous :-)

Robert, you MUST stop taunting me with that Night Runner until you have one I can buy ;-) I'm really liking the group shot too, and I sure hope my Rim of Fire blooms just as pretty when it gets bigger.

I've got a couple today, but certainly nothing prettier than what is already on this thread. First up is a super hot Molten Lava. Nighttime really makes the color pop on this one.

I have a couple tonight--first is Ring of Fire, this is actually the 3rd day bloom on it. It's looking a little rough around the edges, but still pretty impressive for day #3!

And then Magnifique--just arrived from HVH last week and already blooming! I'm going to post 2 pics of it with different lighting. This one was in daylight:

I've got three nice Gator Pride blooms, but could only capture 2 - the plant is just too big to fit into one frame. Totally different color than Florida, and I must say, that I like Cat's color much better than mine.

And Magnifique again at dusk

Allure's bloom was kinda laying at ground level today, but still pretty.

Continuing with my orange blooms is Tangerine Dream. As a matter of fact, it's so orange today, I think something took a bite out of the flower's edge.

Since one cannot ever have TOO much orange, especially when combined with pink, here is The Big Easy.

Rosalind's bloom today is just a single, but still pretty. Geez, you'd think with today's pictures that all I have are orange flowers!

Woops, forgot to attach the picture (doh!).

Rum Runner from a distance. I'm too tired to climb the hill tonight...

It's a toss for my So Cal favorite bloom between this picture of Black Jack, which had three stunning blooms today, and the next pic.

And, Strawberry Fields Forever. What, it's not orange???

Liz, Ring of Fire looks great for a third day shot - don't you love this cooler weather? I really like your dusk Magnifique picture too - aren't you in love with this one???

karen

Magnifique definitely lives up to its name! It's definitely up there on my list of new favorites.

I love your Strawberry Fields, that's definitely one I'm going to have to get next year (or maybe I'll place yet another "last order of the year" this year!)

Every single one is magnificent. I cannot pick a fav, or even a top 5 fav. I love the colors as they get deeper and richer.

All are great pictures. Hey, everyone.....have a great weekend. I'm having company from today through Sunday, so I'll have to catch up here after I catch up at home. See you soon.

Have fun with your company!!

I'm going to be MIA for a few days too--the dog and I rented a house by the coast for a few days and I'm taking my computer but I'm not holding my breath that there'll be a wireless network there that I can get on! So most likely I won't be around either...you guys will have to post some awesome pics for me to admire when I come back! I'm just crossing my fingers that my Dragon's Breath and Double Trouble can hold off on blooming until I get back, they've both got buds that look like they're almost ready to bloom, and it'll be the first bloom for me on both of them so I really don't want to miss them!

A house on the coast sounds lovely - have a great and relaxing time!

everyone, have a wonderful time.
Me? I'm working this weekend :(
