Here is my first Aphrodite blossom! I got this in a packaged box and I was surprised it wasn't mislabeled!

Very nice! I used to have a number of these, then I gave Rocky Mt Ryan one and the rest went into hiding :-). Maybe this year they will decide that it is OK to come out and play again. I miss them!

My new box Aphrodite scape is about six inches tall so far, and you have given me hope that it too will be as labeled. Thanks for posting!

No problem, I was so excited because usually I get mislabeled Hippies from big box stores. I really wanted to get the grand cru but I'm going to see if they go on sale first.
