Spanish Fiesta is one of my favorite blooms(especially right now, since it is reblooming). It looks like the Trimmer's picture. As you may recall, I also have Parrot Jungle. Dan Trimmer told me that PJ was more for hybridizer and SF for just enjoying, but PJ couldn't have been prettier this year. Mantis, I got my SF on the auction. Avedon, your Orchid Corsage may surprise you. Thank you Maryl, I love it myself. This is the first year Indian Summer has been good about clumps. It is a very large bloom, too. ngraham...you and I both love the brights, don't we? kay

Thanks Bill. You are probably the sole reason that I haven't given up. Your kind,patient words have always followed my whining and complaining. I relate it to Mr Miagi with the whole "Wax on, wax off" thing: The student wants to focus on the prize with all of the glory (plumeria blooms). Whereas the master wants to focus on the details in preparation that will eventually lead to success and, of course, the aforementioned prize and glory In hindsight, I have realized that most of the time when I got an answer to a question I picked out small parts of the info and ignored the rest. My success (or lack thereof) is directly related to trying to do things my own way. I have learned many lessons and plan on using what I have learned for a successful "Plmureia '07" Thanks again Bill!!! CHEERS! oc_dave

You know I have to ask: Better of the two reds for you? Apache War Dance, August Cherry? Any difference in bloom time?.............My Indian Ripple is budded up and about to break open. It is late here too comparatively speaking. It even rebloomed one year. You can tell I'm keen on it.........Amber Finale is nice too...........Maryl

Maryl - Apache War Dance is registered ML and starts blooming in my garden about five days before August Cherry, registered as a late bloomer. Neither reblooms. On a 96 degree day like this Apache War Dance loses its red and becomes a good strong orange with a red eye by evening. August Cherry fades a bit, but still looks pretty good at the end of the day. Apache War Dance is registered as being 4.5 inches, but it's more like 5.5 inches here. August Cherry exceeds the hybridizer's registered bud count of 17 in my garden. It's not well budded this season, but it's had in excess of 20 buds a scape several seasons here. I prefer the blue red of August Cherry to the orange red of Apache War Dance, but that's just a personal preference. Both are dormant and should survive bad winters in pots.

Thank you so much Debra. I may need to try both as each seems to have their merits. I really like the color of them equally in your pictures. It's just how they stand up to the heat. 99 degrees here again today, so they will get a work out as "late" bloomers in my climate. ............Maryl

Lovely pics. Apache War Dance is quite the performer in our garden. I am not crazy about its color, but you can't deny that it puts on a show. That clump of El Desperado is something else. We moved ours to a better location so some of these days, we might see a display like yours.

I have debated on Indian Ripple, glad you said it is more of a late. I would have already had it if I had known that!

Nancy - The two years I've had it planted in the ground, Indian Ripple bloomed with my lates. I grew it for several years in a pot much earlier, and it used to bloom later than my lates then.

So I am late again, El Desperado looks great. Indian Ripple shines this time of year. The clump of Waves Before Wings is beautiful too. Apache war dance shines brightly. Great post, DEbra.
