    Just catching up we've been away for a day and night to York races :biggrin:, lovely pictures everyone.
    I love the Watchyl series JazzSi I have 3 now, are the flowers on your Wild Indian just as huge as the others?
    The Sybils Blues cross is a beauty Wylie :wub2:

      Yes Wild Indian is a large flower, just had to put a stake in as the scape is bending over.

        'Third Witch' the colour seems so much more intense on this one this year, usually it looks very similar to 'Grey Witch' not this year :)

        And 'Sink into Your Eyes' is a real stunner at the moment.

            How do you find everything?:scratch: Hugh but, :wow: My main area is broken down to 19 sections, so it boggles the mind on how you are able to keep track of everything. I like the little white tags on some of them. :heehee:

                        Lori Goldston is great :blue thumb:
                        Do you sometimes wonder why some of these cultivars get registered? I have a theory - so people can give them as "bonus plants". To support this, here is one I got. It is Camera Ready, a 5" TET, Evergreen and reblooms (:hate-shocked:).
                        Camera Ready.JPG
                        This is the first time it has flowered, and has a velvet texture to it. In doing some looking around, I found it is pollen fertile but not pod fertile. I have a friend who will ohh & ahh over this while ignoring everything else.
                        Reminding me why I kept it is Bounty x Heavenly Pink Butterfly. 5" DIP:
                        Bounty x Heavenly Pink Butterfly (2).JPG
                        And from my favourite group, which I have used to make over 30 crosses this year, Amethyst Reflections x Unk. This has the quilling of the sepals and yellow to green throat. Also 7.5" across.

                          Stop it Wylie !!!!! those Amethyst Refection crosses bring me out in a hot sweat every time I see them :heehee:
                          The daylily bed is a bit large isn't it, still some grass to go though:heehee:, I do know where every one is in there though:redface:, but they are all my named varieties the seedlings are on the allotment, I haven't memorised them yet :heehee:
