There's a lot going on in those blooms! Love the sunset colours, the picotee makes the blooms stand out and such a lovely shade of pink.

Cym Bert Ruiter will be a breakthrough parent for sure. The best one for redness that l have seen is in the collection of Duy Nguyen in S. California. But their seedlings will be strongly red by the F2. In the NH they bloom for Mother’s Day and in the SH, they bloom when Garden Centers are full of horticulturalists.

I agree Andy, this hybrid is special and garden centers would have problems keeping up with the demand with that flower sitting there on display in full bloom.

As will Three Amigos. Because Sam is part of our royalty paying group he will be selling under trade names but the crosses the Three Amigos will have will all be correctly labelled October-November bloomers.

Excellent I could pick one up on the way to my Dad's place once they have them.
I guess it would prudent to put in an order.

Edited.......
Just remembered after seeing their post in FB, there is a show on 4th May so I'll try and get down there.

Can you let me know Diane if they have any. Don't know how to contact them as I don't do Facebook, and as far as I know they don't have a website or advertised email address or phone contact number. It would be good if you catch up with them to get contact details, thanks.
