Phal. I-Hsin Sunflower
 
This one didn't perform well this year because it was transitioning from pot life t basket life, but I think it will look nice next year!

The flower is quite a pretty color and I really like the form. Very nice. Your photography is fantastic, as always, too. :)

I think you're right, Bob. It probably will do well in that basket. Don't cut the spike off when the flower fades. That's a hybrid that can produce more buds on the same spike either later this year or when it blooms again next year. Phal. I-Hsin Sunflower is one of my favorite bright yellows. Your's is beautiful and the photographs are excellent.

Quay the one I got when you got yours is a beast. It loves sh. Mine is blooming too but will lose its spikes as it got a sudden attack of mealies.

Thank you! I might cut the spike on it in hopes that next year it will have a better looking display. I think that on a fresh spike, things tend to display better.

Quick, hit it with some Bayer 3-in-1!

I just thought of something kind of sad. For most of these blooming right now, this is my last time to see them bloom. By this time nest year, most of them will be sold and gone :(

Going away to college? That's a bummer. Are you keeping any?
