I have to keep trying for a true-color picture of this one. The pics shown do not pick up the depth of color it truly is. I'm really happy with this one!  |

Is the true color bluer or purpler? Or is it just not deep enough? If the latter, then the only trick I can suggest is take the photo at mid day (avoid color shifts do to shade, sun position, blueness of sky etc.) and try a polarizer. If your camera doesn't accept filters, then have someone hold a pair of polarizing sunglasses in front of lens and rotate till all the glare is gone. |

Thanks for the suggestions, Ross 
I'll give it a try...the color is a deeper richer shade of purple than what I've posted and the lip is more red. It's stunning! |

That is gorgeous! Oh I want one! How long a wait?
Honestly, those pictures just blow me away!
It has to be very fragrant???? They can put men on the moon, why can't they invent some cameras that can capture the fragrance???? Then we can all enjoy.
Very very very nice....... kiki-do |

Thanks 
I waited over two years for this!
It did get a bud last year but it died before it got anywhere 
It took two days for the fragrance to rev itself up...very faint at first, now it smells kind of clovey-spicy
You watch...we'll have Smellevision someday  |
