A few new blooms to share, this one from Emma's Incredible Mix.
It had this bloom yesterday and was really awesome, so thank you Emma.

President Bush seems a little different from blooms I've seen of it.

This one is from another vine & bloom from Emma's Mauve mix. I like it and looking forward to more blooms from it.

Another bloom from the same vine of Incredible mix.

Second vine of Cocoa chocolate silk.

A very pretty bloom!

Fujishibori bloom from a different vine that maybe hadd some bug munching on it.

If you get enough seeds from both or either one, I'd wanna do a trade this year for a few seeds!!! :-) I am sure my "want list" from you will grow, too! LOL!

i agree with becky they are all gorgeous....

but my fave is this one

i love the 6 polka dots if you count the eye...

if you get any seeds Helena.... please -))

helena - Are the blooms showing the blizzard pattern in the photo here
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=6555606
on the same exact plant producing the solid blooms (?)...or is there more than 1 vine in that container (?)...

Sure hope that you can tag some of the blizzard blooms if there is more than 1 plant...

TTY,...

Ron

Helena,
I agree with Ron.
You should definitely tag the bloom on the left in this photo
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=6555606
and any others that are a strong Blizzard.

SO VERY UNUSUAL AND PRETTY.
In fact, I would love to have some of your Lavender Chiffon seeds back.
Also, I plan to grow it again this year as well.

Emma

Impressive blooms Helena.

Thank you everyone. I will put you on the list Colin for the one you want. Definitely save the ones you like Becky, you have a few that I like too.

Ron and Emma, I have 2 vines of Lavender Chiffon growing separately in their own pot but both vines are having blizzard blooms. Today one of the vine has 4 blooms & all 4 have blizzard on them. I'll try to tag the ones with most blizzard.

Here's another bloom of LC blizzard. Had to take pic without flash for them to show up.

I was looking forward to this bloom but now don't know what to expect from my seeds. It was supposed to be gray star with white stripes from last year that had only one little seed. I still like these rose mauve blooms though!

Incredible mix bloom!

Same vine with incredible mix blooms!

Thank you Dany, another vine of Mutant. This one the leaves do not curl & the bloom is different too. I like the light color leaves!

I like this one too.

Lavender blooms on LYK.

Pink Surprise having nicer different blooms.

Roman Candy.

Helena - I love the leaves on this one!!! http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=6559443 Is this an I. nil vine?

Your LC Blizzard is striking! Lovely!!! And your Pink Surprise is too sweet! :-)

Add these seeds to my "wish list", please! I really like all of those that you are currently growing!

We are so lucky to have this warmer weather to be able to grow so many to bloom stage so quickly. My yard is in full bloom currently and I feel really blessed to see the show that nature is putting on here! :-)

Hi Becky and thanks. Yes, I like living here and be able to grow lots of neat plants and have hummingbirds too.

I had to check seeds from Dany and that Mutant is an I. nil. so I put you on the want list for those and the others. I'll probably D-mail you a want list later. Love your neat blooms too!

Helena, Love the lavender blooms on LYK and the blue out of Incredible mix.
All are very pretty though.

Helena - Nice blooms...

This one here
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=6559491
lost the white margin it started out with (?)

This one
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=6559463
has the leaves of the yaguruma but a nice solid deep lavender-blue...

Nice (!)

TTY,...

Ron

Thank you Jackie and Ron. Ron, I was thinking the same think about that pink bloom, I'll have to keep a better eye on it.

It rained quite a bit yesterday, got cold & windy today so that there are only a few blooms today and some that don't want to open.

This one is supposed to be Blue swirl but turned out to be a very light lavender with a few white stripes. No flash on first pic.

Flaked I. purpurea
