Double Dream, Magic Green & papilio

11 years ago

Here are a few things blooming currently. I am really pleased with Double Dream, these were taken outside without flash to capture the true color. With flash it looks more like Sweet Nymph but with out the striations. The color is a soft dusky pink, with white. Looks like a lovely waterlily. The flower petals are more symmetrical and with not much pollen at all it's a neater flower. Very pretty.

and Magic Green only had 3 flowers also, and only 1 opened correctly..but I caught the good flower..

and papilio # 1 from Ebay, mother to PapExStasy..

and White Nymph which I was a bit disappointed in but not too bad...

Thanks for looking..Donna

My Double Dream is sleeping on the bottom shelf of the fridge... Guess I really did order too many this year.

I'm potting up 8-10 every few weeks to stagger blooms. Guess we'll see how it all plays out but nonstop blooms from October to June was the plan!

PuPu, I hope you didn't misunderstand, Double Dream is a Dutch hybrid..I can't take any credit for this one other than putting it in a pot!!...Donna
