Krista JessieC Thank you! It’s nice and bright for my partner, Ian, to help him make it through this gray week while I’m away. 💕
Krista Juliarugula Thank you! A couple of JS Pinky’s latest flush of blooms are present - smaller in size, but still with sturdy stems - they’re in it ‘til the end!
Krista Emilyp I almost forgot to post this! Bloom #2 wasn’t the beautiful deep orange yours is - I will definitely try Allen’s Alley Cat in a shadier spot next year!
JessieC Krista Mine also started out looking more like yours, with an almost variegated color. As much as I’ve been cursing Parkland Tribute for being tall and unruly, I have to say the color is unparalleled. It’s closer to the color I thought CVP would be. I suspect I’ll have a lot of tubers, and I’ll be happy to send some your way!
AndreaB JessieC I agree with you Jesse! Parkland Tribute was new to me this year and I loved the color.
Teddahlia Hollyhill Snowfire has become a personal favorite. Easy to grow, makes tubers and when Margaret takes the picture, very photogenic.

JessieC Teddahlia ok now I have to keep Parkland Tribute. I do love the history you share so much, Ted! Thank you. 😊

Teddahlia HH Clydesdale was one of Margaret's first hand crosses and was a cross of Kenora Clyde and Clara Huston. It can grow into a large flower but it's form is not very good for the shows. Makes lots of easy storing tubers.
