If we had a website, I might use this picture.

Ooops I posted that one before. Here is something new. I loved this one..Mingus Mikey B. It's for sale at Old House today. I don't think anyone else has it.

I had one really good year with that one. It was spectacular!

I got Mingus Mikie B from someone last year.Here it is at the top of the pic with Salish Sailors Warning last summer. I hope I have some surviving tubers for this year!

I can't remember if it failed to over-winter well or the tubers were solid but the stock lost vigor. Pretty sure it's the type of intense magenta that fades easily so take pics when it's in intense mode. Would love to see more of it.

Oh pretty, Noni! Yours looks different than mine, but still such a stand out. I'm so happy to grow it again, Amanda!

Yes, I am not sure this is really true to name. I know I ordered it but it could be misnamed.

So cheery! Little suns.

Oh Wow! As our fine weather turns gray and chilly again those are like little balls of sunshine and warmth! Do you mean that they were at the Trial Garden last year or is someone applying now. I want a big vase of those right here beside me now!

Orange flower is Clearview Emma at the trial garden in August 2021.

Beautiful!

I think Clearview Emma was sold out before I got to the store this season and I got there pretty early.
