Kay,

I do like PURPLE TARANTULA and MADERA GOLD. NEON FLAMINGO is a fantastic plant.

Lots of wonderful clumps in this post. I think Bob Marley is my favorite clump. Gemstone Red stands out to me, maybe because I don't think I've seen it before. That's a really lovely photo of Neon Flamingo.

Madeira Gold is definitely a favorite of yours this year. And has bloomed for a long time. I see that Gemstone Red is another Reimer.

Wow...your garden reflects your hard work, planning and care. I totally agree about raphiolepis. It's just one of the best garden staples around, trouble free, blooms beautifully with dark green foliage. I just don't understand why people don't plant more of them and less of those tempermental, itchy azaleas! Don't you just love the color of those tender rose leaves when they first burst forth after pruning!? Thanks for sharing your pictures.

I must say, that for some unknown reason, I tended to dislike any dark oranges in general for many years in any type of flower, and only liked a tangerine perhaps or lighter shades of orange, but nowdays I feel very different about the dakrer shades and just love them and want to add more. Those are good candidates I'd say, and very lovely! So far I love my Santiago Heat, and Mauna Loa, though obviously I have many more to choose from! In a much older variety with a bright eye, perhaps Hot Town?

Greetings is an awesome rose. It never stops flowering. The buds on it are absolutely unbelievable, there are so many. I only have 2 flowers open on it so far but will be sure to take pictures when more open. As far as I can see J&P offered Greetings for one year, which is when I got it and then it was gone. Replaced by GOOD N PLENTY, which I didn't feel I wanted. Royal Wedding is also a J&P rose, one of their versions of english style roses like their Golden Zest. LOUISE CLEMENTS is one of the John Clements intros from Heirloom Roses as is MEMORIES. Cool here too but it hasn't bothered the roses, going to be a great spring flush.

It certainly is a bright post! Purple Tarantula is so pretty. Bob Marley is always a bright one. The Reimers are big and flat aren’t they? I don’t remember Faye’s Lovely Mistake. It is pretty too. Is it a new one?

Purple Tarantula is a looker, pictures always call to me. I do like purples, so Faye's Lovely Mistake talks to me too, today. I always enjoy your posts. I look at your plants that I have here, and it makes me anticipate mine even more.

Debra, , Bob Marley is always a favorite of mine,,,in fact, a lot of these are favorites.

Yes, Mantis, I enjoy the very large perfect blooms on /Reimer's plants and especially the look of Madera Gold.

Kate, Faye's Lovely Mistake is a plant that the grower lost the name and could not sell it. I had gotten it as a mistake which they corrected and was told to keep it as it was pretty, which it definitely is. I would love to know what it is, but they could not find out, so I have called it Faye's Beautiful Mistake ever since.because it is a beauty.

Anticipations is fun too, isn't it Nancy?

Beautiful! Such vibrant colors! I love Purple Tarantula and Bob Marley. Madera Gold is wonderful too. I love how flat it is with such a wonderful eye. Faye's Lovely Mistake is a keeper for sure.
