I love those rims on the standards Mike. Way
too go.!! :-) (But, personally I miss the form the
standards use to have - not too long ago). It might be just me but I'm not
too fond of the 'straight up' look or 'open' standards. However the
colors on these 2 are lovely! :-)

and I crossed it with the golden brown rimmed
standards seedling too.... :-)
thanks Janet
attached is the seedling. will come out in
2011 but can't think of a name yet... oh, it reblooms too.
hardest flower to get the color right.
usually the standards fade out in the pictures because the falls are so
dark.
Very cold and wet bloom season here, still not at
TB peak. 10 years ago peak was April 15th, has been trending later and
later every year since. Last few years it has been around the 23rd of
April, this year it will be about the middle of next week.....we still have
SDBs and IBs blooming.

OK, this is one of the
flowers that looks better in person then in a picture....but I really
like it. Been working on the rim on standards for several years
and been making some progress, this is the nicest rim on standards for
me to date. It really pops in the field and for some reason that
doesn't come through in the photo....does show the nice brownish rim but
the gold gilding doesn't come through.. it sort of sparkles in the
sun.
