HYB:Returning Chameleon & Immortality

Trouble with MIDSUMMER'S EVE is that it has the 'short' genes, which seem to be in nearly every pink rebloomer around. Or at least the ones that will tolerate our climate/growing conditions ('the vale of despair' <g>). I think I have it - will check.
RETURNING CHAMELEON (and unfortunately both parents) is short also, but at least it's a TB, and there might be something here by next bloom season with height that would be a good match.
I'm not specifically breeding for color (or rebloom, for that matter) yet, just trying to get several lines going that thrive and bloom reliably in my growing conditions and that have <potential> to produce rebloom children (or grandchildren) in colors other than white or blue-purple or light yellow. 


Do you know the pink  MIDSUMMER'S EVE ?
i sent the picture last week,
it's  ( IMMORTALITY X ENCHANTED WORLD)


ENCH. WORLD= (Flaming Dragon x Pink Horizon) X (Glazed Orange x Radiant Light).

that should tickle RET. CHAMELEON's pink genes shouln't it? may be too orange ?

Midsummer's Eve reblooms early, in September, the best in fact cos blazing summer is over, and frost is still far in the future .
