Lucy, what is the cross? Is that Jacayna x Morgensonne? Those buds look huge. I hope you get something nice.

forget about the bag .... put them in the garage ... leave them 3 feet from the door.. and keep the door open all day ... out of the sun ... move them a foot or two closer each day .... and close at night if a freeze is forecast .... or on the north side of a building ... moving them away from the house a foot or two each day to stronger sun ... or any different idea you can come up with ... but forget the bag ... these are trees ... leaves fall off.. and they will rebud 99% of the time ... the conifers probably wont care ... unless the new growth is fully extended and very soft ... start as soon as you get home from work .. and let them soak up twilight and get ready for tomorrow .... black pots get real hot in sun, even in winter ... so keep the pot itself out of the sun .... you have some foolproof stuff here.. don't overthink it all and screw it up ..... like paper bags etc .. lol ... just kidding .... when planting ... don't overthink it ... dig hole.. insert tree ... refill half way .. big drink ... refill the rest .. another drink .. walk away .. do not water again until the soil is hot or dry .. insert finger to 3 to 6 inches to find out ... do not amend soil .. do not fert ... do it like a squirrel .. dig hole.. insert nut/tree ... and go chatter at the neighbors .... lol ... got it ???? have a great day , and .... if you are working in clay .. good luck.. i have no experience .... maybe another post ... good luck ken

Nice thread, beautiful plants! Good job! Yes, it's perfectly normal for seedlings to be very hit and miss with regards to looking like the parent plants or not. Only grafted plants or other cuttings are clones of the original. For one thing with seeds you don't always know if they are selfed or cross pollinated with something else entirely. A lot of sellers don't tell you! Also with white flowers you are dealing with the alba gene with is an 'on or off' switch that masks the real color of the flower. /Some/ hybridizers work very hard to line breed very specific colors through many generations and thereby get much higher results looking similar to the parent plants. But most do not. Anyway, I would be /delighted/ to get such diversity from a white seed parent! All of your plants turned out to be quite lovely, whether they are what you wanted or not. I hope you like them too! They look very healthy and lovely.

Seedling has a "scape" and a bud 3 months after sprouting from seed.

I had that happen a couple of years ago. I didn't cut the scape off, but we were away when it bloomed. The plant was mixed in with other seedlings and I lost track of it. If that happens again, I definitely will cut the scape off.

Tim this time it does not hurt when you say she is fat rofl

Shawn, yupp that is it. Is it Jacayna or Jaconya? Somehow I ended up with a O :-( Do you have one? I have several from that cross.

Pat thanks I need it. today Toto and Dorothy landed in Texas. Man and this is nothing to what is suppose to come after midnight and I am already picking pots up all day long.

Oh well..as long as the seedpod on Flamenco does not break off and has time to ripen...I don't care....well...not to the point where I let it drive me crazy.

What fat buds! Can't wait to see what it looks like. My yard looked like tornado went through. I thought the wind yesterday was bad but something aweful happened this morning. Nearly every single potted plant I had was blown all over this morning. No losses other than a few broke stems and lots of lost buds boohoo. My sister finally got here and we sent straight to the bar. Too much stress the last few days, lol.

Wait till it pops! Something special is about to happen! :) I can just feel it! Seems like the longer you wait for a bud to bloom - it's something spectacular when it finally happens!

Mike I believe you are right. Noisy as I am...I carefully pulled the front apart to see if it is a double. NO double..I saw the pollen :-(

BUT...get this...I counted 8 points! Now THAT has to be special, regardless of the color :-)

That is going to be a beauty Lucy. Not too much longer to wait.

Eight points, reminds me deer season is on the way.

BTW, I just moved the Candida double white you sent me to a 3 gal. pot. It had started to grow out of the 1 gal. in less than two months.

Back with another picture of a more open bloom from last night.
{{gwi:564544}}From Pictures for GW friends

Now an hour later, it was like 10 pm, the bloom was a bit more open. But I said it should be just the same in the morning...you know...like 4 am roflmao....but it was already closed up more again.

So I wonder if it will actually be so stretched open that there are no folds because of the 8 points or not????

the color has not changed yet. I guess I have another whitish looking one now lol

It IS a beautiful huge bloom. Not long...just WIDE. But I think because I ripped it in one place a little when I tried to count the points...that might be the reason it does not open all the way anymore.
Or maybe because it is almost on the ground? Regardless...I do like it a lot and hope the next bloom might open all the way.

So with this one I just held it up :-)
