You have some very nice ones! Pure and Simple stands the test of time. It never goes out of style.The eye pattern on Through the Looking Glass is so interesting! But I think Monterrey Jack is my favorite one. I like the color combo on it, and the eye blazes.

Purple is my favorite color and you have plenty of it tonight :) I tend to like the non-spider ones best, though I do like the purples in your spiders. I think my favorite is the dark purple seedling with the red/orange ring around the throat. I think you should name it Purple Fire! (assuming that isn't taken...) :P

Late to the party, but just took pix so figured I'd post. Potted up most of the peppers to individual cells weeks ago, but still have Alma and Tequila Sunrise from Bill multiples per cell. Hope I don't kill them separating them. They're up front on the right (with white envelope in front) - don't they look nice? These won't be transplanted for another 4 weeks at least. But if I can get the tomatoes out of the house this week, I'll have room for individual pots for the peppers. This post was edited by ajsmama on Tue, May 6, 14 at 11:04

I think the prices your friend has asked for are reasonable - even a good buy for the sink. I bought a floor model after the sink was discontinued for $580. At the time (almost a year ago) the best online price I could find was $676. Those deep sinks are expensive! I paid $38.50 for my sink grid on eBay but typical online price was $95. I haven't checked lately, but I think that grid is still available. My dishwasher is to the right of the sink, perpendicular to the sink counter, closest to the small sink with the disposer. My faucet is Blanco Anu. I love the high arc but find the pullout style awkward. Once pulled out, it is hard to aim the water spray where it is needed. I would suggest looking for a pulldown style, instead. (There's an active thread about pullout versus pulldown faucets that you may want to view, too.) I don't notice much splashing from the small sink. Rather, the tall faucet seems to splash more in the large sink and on the divide between the sinks. I don't find that a major problem - just a quick wipe with the sponge and all is neat again. The stainless does seem to show water spots easily. I've tried a couple of stainless cleaners and the Weimar polish seems to do the best job of preventing water spots. You do need to wipe off the water, though, when you are through using the sink. And our water is very hard.

I really like the bagels. I would think you have to have a fairly large flower to begin with or the rolled back petals would make the flower appear too small. Maybe that's why I don't see as many as I would like. I was once thinking of starting a thread on them. Your Pure and Simple is anything but Simple. I will be looking that one up...... Another thing I like is the corduroy effect on petals so that includes another 2 (the yellow and purple bicolor). Then there's just the pretty ones. Heck they are all winners. Thanks for posting them. I want more bagels!....Maryl

TUTANKHAMUN is probably my favorite here, love the bicolor & mid ribs, very striking. Something about Siloam Melvin's Yellow that I am really liking too, the ruffling & color just look delicate & pretty. Through the Looking Glass is nice too. I'll stop before I pick every one as a favorite :)

I like yellow selfs, so S. Melvin's Yellow is my first choice, and then the bitone Tutankhamun, very interesting look to the flower. Avedon

Very nice! I love Monterrey Jack - nice raspberry halo and the rib running through it is very interesting.
