Art's pride echinacea, Christa Barlow columbine, Pink punch delphinium, columbine dorothy rose, coral bells key lime pie, coral bells georgia peach. Please email me with your trades. Thanks Kathy

I have started most of my delphs from seed. I have never been totally satisfied with finding a pink delph yet, most have a lavender shade to them. I have been looking at the Dowdeswell Delphinium site in New Zealand and love the looks of the Pink Punch one.I think it depends on the temperature and moisture on each year on what shade the "pink" delphs are... Jean Astolat delph Dusky Maiden delph Mixed delphs..another Astolat on the nearest end

Thanks everyone for your kind words. We are just thrilled with this seedling. I can see the fascination with seedlings now. When you get something like this, it makes it so worthwhile. When I walk outside, these blooms just immediately catch your eye. We had a Mardi Gras seedling bloom last year and it bloomed white. Mardi Gras Seedling And our Pink Pansy seedling that bloomed white but the smell was divine. Pink Pansy Seedling And here is another picture of our OP Seedling in comparison to some others blooming for us: Left to right: Kona Cranberry, Lemon Drop, Salmon Brown, Dalat Girl, Rainbow Hybrid (got from 1-stop this year) and at the top is our Orange Punch Seedling. Look at the size compared to the others And Jen - too funny. If I took your seedlings I would probably forget to return them if they bloomed like this :) Joan

Well, this bad (good? LOL) boy is STILL blooming. Very slowly, but there is almost always one open bud at all times. Every time I think it's just about done, I see more buds forming. Was curious if this is regular blooming behavior? I'm sure different varieties act differently, but in general, do inflos keep pushing buds and blooms like this? One other question if I may... if a cutting/plant is going to push an inflo coming out of dormancy, is it always before the leaves form or is it more cultivar dependent? Both of my inflos this year formed before any leaves and I was curious if that was something I could watch for next year. Thanks in advance for your time and more important, KNOWLEDGE!
