Smith College Bulb Show, etc.

I went to the show yesterday and took more than bulbs but wanted to share.

Oh, my! Be still my heart!! Aren't those lovely!

Smith College always has the most fabulous bulb show (at least I think so from your pics last year, too!)

Please show us more!

You can see more on the link. Glad you like my pics!

Boojum, what a treat. I went to the Boston Show as I was just driving by it on my way home from Maine. I saw some nice orchids in the displays and Dave Walker (Green River Orchids) at his booth. I did speak to him, but I thought it wise to wait to buy orchids when I was not flying home in a cold gale. Bumpy ride. Patti

Great photos, Boojum! You can almost smell the flowers...

Glad you enjoyed them!

They are beautiful! Thanks for posting them. Do you (by any chance, I know it's a long shot) remember what daffs were at the top of IMG_4142 and the name of the ones on the left in IMG_4162? I would love to get some for the yard.

4142 is Kissproof and 4162 is Pink Charm

That is my good guess.

Thanks Bleek! and Thanks again for the lilies- amazing prices, I have no idea how you got them down that low, but I'm grateful. :D I may have to quit scaling and just plant bulbs from you all.

Thanks Bleek. It's always too packed (people and plants) to get to labels but I know Pink Charm is correct.

Bleek, I got "Kiss Proof" from you last fall, can't wait for mine to bloom. I think an old planting I have may be "Pink Charm". Here is the patch I have of it. What do you think it is? Patti

Well, then I am 1 for 2

Very nice photos of the flower show, boojum.

bbrookrd, wonderful pink daffs you have. Normally I am not a pink daffodil fan, but yours look terrific in your landscape!

Hmmmmm........My guess would be Easter Bonnet. The pink in your picture is lighter and if it is not in the picture quality, then I think that yours is not Pink Charm.

Dang you are good! I have had this for many years. I bought it when I first heard about "pink daffodils" in the 80's. I see "Easter Bonnet was introduced in 1956, so it is plenty old enough. The color in the photo is pretty good as I remember. I will send you another one in May when it blooms this year. Always blooms around May 10the hear. Thanks for the help. Patti

Bleek, I am such a dummy, as I just checked my Journal and I see I ordered "Easter Bonnet" from you last fall, so I can just compare the two. They are both planted on the East side of the house, but not visually close. I will let you know if you got a "Bingo". Patti

Wonderful pictures Boojum! thanks for sharing.

You are very welcome, Tam.
