Love it. Now what size is it. Your hand is probly smaller than mine. It is hard to tell size with out some standard reference.

It's 10" across and I did nada: No disbudding, no compost, no manure---and clay soil. Just think what some TLC would do for this one....AA - FD - Emory Paul. (and thanks for looking).

It is so unfair that some of us our out preening and carefully fertilizing, watering, pruning and primping and you can plop a tuber in clay soil to produce that monster, in August yet!

Good job MissLucinda. Despite our wonder-weather, or maybe because of it, alot of my blooms are smaller than usual this year too.
