Beautiful! I love those colors. You've done some good growing to raise it from a seedling to a blooming plant. That photograph is excellent. I can't believe you got that picture in natural light. Good job.

Fantastic colors and shape on these, Howard. And I can imagine that the fragrance is rather strong also, which is an added benefit. Photo is great too. I know how hard it is to capture the dark purples in just the right lighting without making them look like an unattractive brown. Congratulations on the blooms.

Great flowers and photo. G-rated or not, it is totally hot!
