Wednesday Morning in Nova Scotia

Here are some pictures I got before my camera batteries died.

Cloud Forest - I can't wait for this one to clump up.

Green Mystique - It is actually showing a bit of green today.

Michael Miller X Accent on Style - Best seedling of this cross and only keeper.

Tower of Babel - Most accurate picture of this one this year. This is exactly how it looks in my garden.

Those are lovely, Ed. I have Tuscawilla Tigress and it's a fave - the color is so vivid! Do I spy kitty feet in the background of your first shot? Is it yours? We have 3 cats but they only go out when we can watch them. There's a very busy road in front of our house and we're always afraid they will run out into it.

My daughter bought TT and I plan on getting a start from her. It looks like it could glow in the dark.

My favorite is definitely Tower of Babel. Do I see a hint of blue in there? And isn't it nice when the color in the picture turns out exactly as it does in person. Sometimes I really struggle with that and it is so infuriating.

Gracie didn't catch any today and she is in out of the rain. I moved Bill Norris last fall and that bloom was on part that got left behind. I have four scapes on my clump just waiting to bloom. Lullaby Baby had the best budcount last year with 32, but it has some serious competition this year. I counted 30 buds on Ah Youth and 40 buds on Lillian's Tears and Roses. I went out to see how the late openers were and Lillian's Somewhere Between was really holding up well. I hope you are not tired of seeing it.

Just beautiful! Yup, LAST SNOWFLAKE is on the list for sure AT THE TOP!!! this year. Until this year, I hadn't really appreciated the wonder of early morning openers. This year, our record tripple digit temps have made me appreciate the stuff that I can enjoy before I got to work, as not much is not "yuck" by the time I get home. Thanks for sharing your beauties!

Hi Edward, I had FFO on Thorhalla and Fizziwig yesterday... today was FFO for Orchid Corsage and Susan Weber. Still to come - Yuma, Carrick Wildon and Simmering Elephants. Your Michael Miller seedling looks to have great form with a lovely ruffle. Love the peach blush on the sepal tips too. Marianne

You are still having lots of really nice ones. My favorites are the first and last ones. Leaning more towards the first if I absolutely had to pick between them.

Green Mystique looks so pretty today! I love how fat and round and ruffly it looks. I also love that polychrome seedling. I wish I had some keepers like that.

Great photos. You are doing great with your seedlings. Maybe next year I'll see what mine will turn out to look like.

Tower of Babel is really nice, I like that seedling too. I've got TT, really a showoff, I'll be glad when it clumps up more.

All of them look great but to me, Green Mystique looks the best. Better go out and get some more batteries for the camera.
