A Little Beauty

IMG_3753

This little seedling possesses a few of the qualities I have been trying to capture when making crosses - deeply colored veins, dark eyezone, ruffled petals, all on a pretty base color. It's only about 18" tall, and the flowers about 3" across, so it will fit nicely in tight spots.

I'm good, PB. I got my laptop working again. Disposable income and all that. Will boost my Internet time!!

Yes, the best of the bunch. If I saw that for sale in a garden centre I'd definitely buy it.

Not one word by anyone about fitting nicely in tight spots?!

I read as far as deeply coloured veins then drifted off into a world of my own.

LOL, Mitzi, MJ! Oddly, or sadly, whichever way you look at it, it didn't even enter my mind!
