    Thanks for that Wylie I was going to split 'Cameroons' this year as well as its a huge plant so more stress,I'll pick a few of the pods off, the bees have been a bit artistic :heehee: so lots of unknown crosses I'll pick them off and see whats left :dbgrtmb:
    Spacecoast Sea Shells and Squirrel Beater OMG bet they'll be amazing!!!!!!
    Think you should go for double spiders next year :ideaIPB: and lots of them then you can send some to me :lunapic 130165696578242 5:.

        And these are a few more of the cheapy seedlings I bought.
        This had a label that said 'Siloam Royal Prince' X its definitely a keeper really gorgeous colour.

        Can't decide about this one the flower is quite large 6inch and it did look lovely the other day with loads of flowers open at once but not sure about the colour? it is diamond dusted though.

        Then there's this one that I really do like, the lady I bought these from was trying to produce seedlings with a gold edge and this one does have quite a nice edge :)

              Jazz Si: love the Blue Venture:blue thumb:
              Simbad: It gets easier composting plants. The mini is a keeper - I'm keeping my small burnt orange one.:spinning: There are others I'd like to dig up right now, but I don't want to disturb the neighbors. Frilly Bliss passes on its form;).

                Agree with Wylie JazzSi 'Blue Venture's gorgeous, got to be a bit of 'Trahylta' in there somwhere :).

                I'm hoping so Wylie the only one that was definitely heading for the compost, the muddy grey coloured one, has had a reprieve after you saying it looked like it might be speckled!!!! still can't decide if it is!!!!! maybe a magnifying glass job :heehee:, and the first year flowering seedlings gone to a keeper after it opened another flower the other day and wow what a colour amazing vivid fushcia!!!!, suppose it'll be easier when more siblings open then you just pick the best (hopefully :wallbanging:).

                  Most of mine rebloom, which gives them a chance to develop. Wait, I have an example:snork:
                  Here is Amber Rhum x Kazoo (located at BSA#6) on May 23:
                  Amber Rhum x Kazoo.JPG
                  Now compare it to one that is open today on the same plant:
                  Amber Rhum x Kazoo.JPG
                  You wouldn't know it, but they are the same:what: The edge is coming along very nicely.
                  College Colors x Bali Watercolor on May 29:
                  College Colors x Bali Watercolor.JPG
                  Really not worth a second look. Even made my probably gone list. Today:
                  College Colors x Bali Watercolor.JPG
                  At 9", very much on the keeper list :hapydancsmil: This fall I will be pulling out a bunch from last year that I wonder why I kept.

                    :wow: they're gorgeous probably best not to be to hasty with the composting then :heehee:.
                    'Wisest of Wizards' is looking good :dbgrtmb:, it almost looks like a bi-color with you, I find it always looks better here late season when it reblooms first time round the flowers often struggle to open don't know why :dunno:

                      And here's another of those seedlings, this one was moved straight from the allotment after it flowered last year, no hard decisions about whether to keep this one :biggrin:, huge 6- 7inch flowers.

                      'Malaysian Monarch' this one hasn't liked the heat at all petals have curled up by lunch time a bit happier today now its slightly cooler.

                        Your yellow one looks great:dbgrtmb: I really like the edge on it and the quilling on the sepals.
                        Only about 45 days left of all this summer heat we are having, then the rain and lower temps will return. Then I can start my gardening projects:phew:.
