Onc Twinkle 'Pink Profusion' and 'Red Fire'
I can take credit for the blooms on the 'Pink Profusion', I got it last fall from eBay and I believe it's a first bloom not only for me but for the plant too. I got the 'Red Fire' in spike from my trip to Marlow's this fall with gngrhill, so Jim gets all the credit for those
I'm a little confused by the fact that the 'Pink Profusion' is much "redder" than the 'Red Fire' which is definitely a pale pink but they're both adorable and smell delightful so the color doesn't matter much

I know what you mean! Waiting for blooms is excruciating

Very nice, Judith. I'm glad to see you had success with your twinkles. Mine are going through a hard time so my culture must be at fault. My pink perfusion had two big spikes, but the blooms are very small and coming 1 at a time and falling off very quickly. My red fire blasted it's spike for a second time, and has just now started 2 new spikes so I'll see what's next, another dry up and die or maybe a bloom or two. My noid with the maroon and beige blooms has a nice spike going and should bloom soon.

Wonderful. I thought Pink Profusion was the light pink color. I'm so confused about names, I fear I'll never get it.
