| OH! Cindee, It is so very good to hear from you again. It looks like your spring show is a week or two ahead of mine, which is to be expected. What a delightful sight, both your blooms and seeing you posting!!! Yep, it was a rough winter here, too. It started out mild but then it hit with one major WUMPPPP! Ann |
|
| The cold winter seemed to make a huge difference the the quality of blooms here in zone 8 (I think we may have been rezoned to 9). The blooms are drenched in color. My Exotica was opening last night and she is the color of molten copper. Can't wait to see her tonight!! My Lemon-lime is rich too. So many blooms!! Overload! Kristi |

| Het girlfriend, long time no see. Welcome back, missed you. We need to get together some time. Beautiful flowers! Jan |
|
| Hurrahhhhhh, Cindee. I'm so glad to see you back on here. I missed you, too. Awesome blooms. Thanks for sharing. Xuan |

| Yes, well I have been AWOL too long! Ann, been thinking aboout you BIG TIME as I have another of your "Charisma Crosses" blooming...and this one is a real odd ball turned stunner! It started out fusing it's blooms, and unlike last years bloom (below) it's a double.
This year the bulb blooming(I have 6 or 7) is very different-more orange and it was a fused double-the first flowers here.
Newer blooms are quite pretty with a hint of white Picotee on the petals...what do you think?? Do you remember who you paired it with? I remember when you sent the seeds you said they were just a mix of Charisma crossings. No Matter, I just adore it!! I am calling it "Sassyann". it is producing so many offsets! Would you like one?? ((huggers))
Hey Kristi, hows it going girl?? This is the latest blooming season I have ever seen and you are right..the bloom quality is spectacular this year! (((Jan)) call me-we have to get together. Geeze, it ws Feb we last met up with Barb. We really should talk more often! |

| Cindee!!!! That is awesome, beautiful, melt in your mouth! I love the picotee! Let me check my records... Ann |
|
| Cindee...one of your seedlings looks like it's blooming size already (you sent seeds 2 years ago as I recall), I think it was FerrarixLimona (I have a tag, just don't recall) Here are 4 of the 23 set to bloom...the early bloomers! There are about 4 others in bloom (Jewel, Red Lion, Garden Red, and Elvas) My Exotica is so deeply colored and rich this year (it's just starting to open - (the fuzzy one closest to the front on the right - really just want to show off the copper color)... I'll send more when Exotica is open all the way. |

| Cindee, I'm holding onto my hat too! So nice to see all your pretty Florida blooms. I'm glad spring has sprung you back over here for a bit! Alana |

Hi Cindee. The two bulblets you sent me, one of them the little pink by Lora bloomed, but the candy floss is just surviving although they are in the same pot. The seedlings are expected to bloom next year.  Arif |
|
| ((((((Cindee)))))) Welcome back! Missed ya girlfriend!!! |
|
| Arif, greetings my dear dear friend!! So exciting to see Loras Pinkie in bud. Mine have not developed to bloom stage. I know not what I am doing wrong. they are lovely green and small still! You must show me the full bloom! As far as Candy Floss, I believe I have a sick bulb. It bloomed beautifully, once, but has shriveled and is is not very healthy looking. I am still nursing it. I guess it passed its sick nature on to the bulblet I sent to you, so sorry. Waving at Alana and Maria~ ~ ~ Hi chickies!! Miss you too. |
