      If you thought Core Values was special, here is one to top that:
      100_7093.JPG
      'Life Is A Highway', Hansen, 2011, TET.
      I measured it, and it is the advertised 10" across:hapydancsmil: This is the one I was able to buy through a person in Germany directly from Dan Hansen at the beginning of this year. So, of course I went running around pollenating everything with it, including Core Values, Julie Newmar, and Spacecoast Dragon Prince.

        I've just been drooling over your picture of this on the other site Wylie, it certainly is very special :wow:.

          The really nice one, that cost me lots :heehee:but worth every penny, that I found so hard to take a picture of last year is flowering, still no better picture I'll keep trying, it looks even better this year such fabulous patterning , one of Sheilas beauties at Theflowerbower.
          'Sanford Star Search'

          'Curly Cinnamon Windmill' this is so tall over 4ft towering above everything at the moment.
          004.JPG
          'Sink Into Your Eye's', love the edge on this now what could I cross it with ?
          011.JPG
          'Cameroons'
          014.JPG
          And a newbie last year, I've wanted this for a while and Pollie happily obliged :biggrin:

            Sanford Star Search isn't that much (go look on Ladybug how much Life Is A Highway is :thud: )
            Magic Of Oz is great for the green throats, a trait it seems to pass on very easily. The ones I have with it as a parent all have green.
            I would try crossing Sink Into Your Eyes to something to try and get the edge. Pick one that has eye-no edge as pod parent, or use Spc Behavior Pattern.:stirpot:

            OMG that is expensive :thud: think I'd need to win the lottery for that one :heehee:
            Ooo pleased to hear Magic of Oz passes on that lovely green throat I was hoping it would, I should have another flower open on Sink into your Eyes and Spacecoast Behaviour Pattern tomorrow so I'll give that cross a go :dbgrtmb: , so many open today I just couldn't decide which to cross, I was all of a dither lol, think the heats getting to me :rolleyespink:, tomorrow I'll be more organised.

                    Think I was mis-sold my "Pixie Parasol"? I was expecting an apricot colour ... but this is what is blooming instead (on all three of them labelled "PP")

                    DSCF6386 (360x640).jpg

                    Pretty little thing though: just not, apricot :heehee:

                      We've all had that happen "M" wrong plants I have several unknowns too, a couple I did have identified by the supplier and one 'Mildred Mitchell' I preferred to the one I originally ordered :heehee:, yours is pretty but there are a lot that look like that so I won't even attempt an id.
