Now <that's> what I like to see!  NIGHT GAME has been very healthy and
reliable here, tho branching and bloom high on the stalk.

With all the seedlings this year using pollen of award winning but not
as disease resistant as I'd like on super strong seedlings, I'm seeing
lots of sickly foliage   (foreground 'gravel' rows, first row - note
foliage on plants in the middle of the row). A lot of strong growing
plants, but not good enough foliage to suit me.  Hoping for good stuff
in crosses between some of these.  One started blooming last month, last
bloom opened yesterday, and another fan is starting a stalk.  A sib is
putting up a maiden rebloom stalk - (IMMORTALITY x CELEBRATION SONG) X
TWILIGHT FANCIES.

Foliage photo is of some healthy kids from various strong crosses from
IMMORTALITY, IMM seedlings, plus a few other things.  I'm not expecting
up to date modern blooms on most of these, but might give me some
rebloom seedlings that add some variety to my healthy 'mama' collection.
