They are all nice but Faithful and True is still my favorite, even with a less "fancy" bloom.

Great clump of Pandora's Box!
Of all your UFOs, I like Cloud Forest the best.
Faithful And True is my favorite of all you posted today.

Julie

Faithful and True is my favorite too. Is it really as white as it looks in the photo? That's a very nice clump of Pandora's Box! I like the ruffling on your first seedling alot.

Juliet

My vote is for Faithful and True too. The seedlings are looking great!

Debra

I'm always a sucker for a green throat, so I'm voting for your last seedling.

I like Faithful and True. We all dress a little informal on the weekends.

Always love a clump pic, especially when they have lots of blooms like Pandora's Box.

Keep em coming

I forgot to say that I love the clump shot of Pandoras Box very much!

Thanks! I like seeing the clump of Pandora's Box. Now I know what to look forward to.

Hi Juliet,

Faithful and True is far from white. It is a cream colour that goes great with the dark burgandy eye.

Edward

FAT is still my fav one also. All your dl's are beautiful however, and I'm enjoying looking at your photos. Keep posting please.

Would have to say my fav out of the bunch of beauties is Faithful and True just stunning and colours complement each other so well.

Great blooms. I love those seedlings! My Pandoras Box is lousey this year. Just 1 bloom.

In another thread I promised a picture of South Seas. I can't find that thread but here is the picture.

They are all wonderful but that SOUTH SEAS is such a stunner. I just love it every time I see it!

Thank you Edward for showing your beautiful DLs. I am glad to see others still enjoying a lot of blooms. It is hard to pick my favorite of all of these but Faithful And True is one of the best.
Jane

Edward, love your clump shot of PB...and Radiation Biohazard really caught my eye - cool bitone. Thanks,
Kathy

Thanks for all the comments. Also, is Charlie still tracking first bloom for Strawberry Candy? If he is, I had my first one open this morning. It is raining off and on today so I expect there will be nothing worth photographing when I get back from work.

I am glad it was dry yesterday. It gave me my first chance to do some hybridizing. Here are the crosses I made.

love your Pandoras box, mine seems to have more of a peachy hue and not the lovely white that your has. I assume its something in the soil.

Hi Sue,

The booms are whitest after it has clumped up and towards the midddle of the bloom period. It really hit its stride this weekend. If the soil makes a difference what I am using was trucked in because as you know there is not much soil here: just lots of granite.
