A few for today 2-6-08

Sweet Pink caught my eye too. A huge fluffernutter of PINK!!

I've stayed away on purpose. Thought I'd take a peek cuz I need some color - Bluebook certainly caught my eye. And it looks as dazzling in cool weather! Oh, no... one more to my list..... Actually, I had to look at Maggie's pic first, then I drooled on Bluebook... Maggie's look of humiliation is priceless! How cute!

Beautiful pics, Cat! I never get tired of looking at your blooms :-) So glad I finally ordered a Silver Memories, and your Wahini is going "on the list", lol!

Barry, your Bluebook picture is stunning!!

Sorry it took so long to answer, but work got in the way!!!!
Sweet Pink is about 6 inches in diameter and about 2 inches in depth. It is gorgeous. Brought another bloom in today, for the vase.
karen, you are going to love her when she blooms for you.

I'm lovin Sweet Pink - here's my lone bloomer this week. Saffron - I'm always excited to see it open because I never know what color I'm going to get. It's a delight sometimes it'll give me yellow blooms, deep orange & today's a medium orange. It opened a set of twins while I went away so I didn't see it but think it was a deeper orange than today's.

Can't decide which angle & lighting I prefer - either way it's a nice surprise - the last 2 days have been so cold - yesterday it rained (freezing) almost all day!

Saffron is beautiful. Love the lavender and orange mixed together. And, believe it or not, I actually really admire it, because I don't own it, lol.

Cat--a hibiscus you don't own? You'll have to fix that right away and order one! LOL

Yes, Cat - you've GOT to get on board with this one, snarky lol ;-0

Ivana (?) your pictures are lovely, I really like Saffron too and can hardly wait for mine to begin blooming again!

Cat you can get this from HVH probably later on in the spring (shows out of stock) what I really like about it is the variations of color it gives - it's always trying to shock me with each bloom. In the summertime I've had a deeper orange with just a tinge of pink around the eye but it's also given me a completely bright yellow with white eye too!

Amarantha (yes Ivana) does your saffron change colors also? Cindy (HVH) says the ones that they have are always deep orange so she was really surprised to see my yellow saffron (same plant).

Hey Ivana, mine blooms a deep orange too, but my mom's (who has it in a shadier place than me) blooms much more yellowish - either color is a stunning bloom though :)

Ivana and Karen and making me envious, lol!

Come on Cat, you KNOW you want a Saffron!!! Have Cindy put you on the waiting list ;-) it is a truly beautiful bloom, you won't be disappointed...
