Great bloom, Paul! Love the yellow...and your trained ant is in the close up!

Paul - If that color is true to the eye what I see in your photos, then .... WOW!

I so badly want to see a yellow bloom that can be crossed. That is a topic I would love to discuss here on this forum. I imagine that is something that Ron is also interested in. I want to know if it IS even remotely possible to cross 2 different species of MG? I know there have been attempts here, but were they successful?

The yellow cross MG photo that Dee posted about was amazing. I want to know more! Wouldn't it be wonderful to add yellow to the cross pollinating possibilies!?? I was astonished by my 4 O'Clock yellow and hot pink cross. A MG would be the ultimate!!! :-) :-) :-)

Paul - Is the plant name correct? I tried to goggle for more info and got nothing.
