Comments (8)Thanks for all the kind comments. My camera did a pretty good job capturing the colors and that's not usually the case. My Paramount stars and stripes bloomed for the first time, too. I love the classics, but it reminds me of Schick flatty cake. Although fc's flowers are much bigger and they smell nice, too. I'm just glad those hybrid pioneers had the imagination and patience to develop these beauties :-) And I owe someone a big THANK YOU. Sorry I don't remember who it was, but they suggested adding vinegar to the water to keep hard water from disfiguring the plants and allowing the plants to access the nutrients in the soil. I've done that all summer and my plants seem much happier. It's too late for most of my Notocactus (a lot of them are very ugly), but I'll do it from now on to prevent future damage....See MoreShive's Weekend blooms
Comments (21)Lala - I find the bud builders don't build buds every year for me. They do if they get copious amounts of rain during the growing season. But that benefits the rebloomers too, so they both do well in those kinds of conditions. Anytime I get more flowers I'm happy. Most bud builders are not rebloomers, so it's a way to get more bloom. I don't know of a hybridizer focusing strictly for bud builders. I'd love to know who that is. Debra...See MoreBlooms, Blooms, Blooms
