| Very beautiful!! My favorite is Alpine Sunset. Reminds me of a shorter paler Frederic Mistral. I want it!!! Tequila Sunrise is amazing looking!!! How do the blooms fade? Is it the type that goes pink as it fades? Carol :) |

| Carol, it does not get that disgusting pink-white color. It seems the color bleeds out and it gets pale yellow. Once, they all turned pale green. The blooms last a long time. Here is a photo of an older bloom fading. I don't know how cold hardy it is but I do think it would prefer a cooler climate as the summer blooms are small. My summers are evil--very hot and dry.

| The green only happened once. The photo above is more characteristic. |

| I usually don't go for singles, but Sharon's Delight is so crisp and pure looking. |
