Colin, Beautiful blooms you're getting, a joy to see.

Jackie

Colin - I LOVE this one: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=6688921 Please save me a couple of seeds if you get enough! What a beauty!!! I also really like your flaked hige! Is it dark pink or purple flakes on it? They are all so pretty! I am enjoying your new blooms right along with you! :-)

Beautiful blooms Colin!!

Love love love those blooms! Thanks for sharing, now I can see what to expect here in my garden.. I too love that one blue one.. I have seeds from Becky also that I have planted.. thanks again, so much for sharing these photos ..

from Emma's seeds, shibori flaked

Really nice flora everyone! I soon will be posting photographs cuz vines are full of buds.

Joseph

i'll save you some seeds from that vine Becky... and the flaked hige is bluish-purple, the pic below shows another flower on the same plant...

nice bloom Eliz hope it's the first of many and bring it on Joseph :-)

Here is Ipomoea hederacea #630 cf. Paraguay, from Ron's collection. Nice dense blue color and a larger flower than other hederacea I grew over the winter.

Joseph

Here's a repeat flower of what looks like could be a pink Scarlett O'Hara...such nice dense and intense pink color!

Joseph - I LOVE your pink Scarlett O'Hara! Please save me some seeds if you get enough for sharing! :-)

Lovely bloom Eliz and love the hige Colin.
Joseph, nice larger version of hederacea

love yours too Joseph.. WOW a pink SOH
here is what was blooming before I left to go wildflower hunting today

A beautiful pink Debra.

I'm enjoying your pictures Joseph, Colin and Debra. Really nice blooms.

nice colours on both of those flowers Joseph... esp. that intense pink.. wow indeed :-)

thats a nice bloom Debra, most of mine are still in the bud stage but i still optimistically pop out each morning just in case ... hope you had a nice time wildflower hunting....

Thanks so much everyone! Isn't it great the days are warmer to promote plant growth? Now if only the nights would warm up a little and rains taper off. The nice blue hederacea actually has very sepals as are seen in nil flowers.

do you have profile shot of the I hederacea cf Paraguay Joseph? and what shape are the leaves...

Hi Colin, here is a profile shot

Here's a leaf shot:

I started just a few kinds a couple of months ago. Here are my first blooms from Mexican Blue (from Bloomheaven).

Actually two blooms open. This is a real pretty flower.

I love those blues!

Nice combination of red, green and blue!

nice colours in thse blooms gardenpom... i like the cheeky red ones too :-)

Joseph... those sepals do look like an I nil... they don't seem to curl at all!... how do you know it's not an I nil?

I don't know it's not a nil. Ron thinks it may be I. nil but we'll have to see how the sepals change shape if at all when the seed pods form up.

Labeled "Blue Split" from Arlene's seeds

Seeds I bought labeled "Blue Split Personality" from a Canadian seed seller....

Milky Way blooms with foliage damaged by golden tortoise beetle I think...

Shibori from Emma's seeds again, drenched after the rain (too much rain up here nowadays) =/

Beautiful bloom !! I like them all.
