    Well done Pollie, I sought out your stand at Hampton Court on simbad’s recommendation. Your display was fantastic and your silver gilt is very well deserved – well done! :love30:

              some of our new ones just started flowering, eye on a string, running late, ocean spirit, crazy miss daisy, tetra skinwalker and under the wire. :D Fabulous and a real shot in the arm when a lot of the main show is now over.

                Some beauties there Pollie just googled them, especially like crazy miss daisy and ocean spirit:D, skinwalker is one I've always liked but never seen for sale I'll be keeping my eye open for that in your next catalogue:).
                Do you have any pictures of them to put on here?

                'Chinese Cloisonne', this one flowered a while ago but wasn't really the colour I expected so was waiting for another flower to see if it was any different, but they have all been like this, what do you think Pollie? know the colours can vary greatly depending on the weather and have read this one can take time to 'settle', flower size etc are right.

                    Good idea Spruce:).
                    Is pretty isn't it, supposed to have a pale blue-violet eyezone and is listed as pastel- cream melon!!! but it is the first year so see how it performs next year.
                    See you won Chesapake Crablegs :D
                    Well have another open today not a very good flower but quite pretty.
