Great pics! Just curious....did the coloratum Henrietta Fujiwara come from a Troy Meyers flask?

Eric,
the tag has no company name on it. the cross is haynaldianum 'VZandCO' X prim v purpurascens 'Tall 50'

Do you recognizes the clonal names?

 

[Eric Muehlbauer]

No...I was just wondering. I made a coloratum Henrietta Fujiwara that I sent to Troy a few years ago. I used primulinum "liltii" (Rands name for a slightly orangey purpurescens...)

I can't wait to get my hands on the philippinense var. album, one spike had 7 flowers!

I have a one growth one and wish I grew multies better!

I am dissappointed to say that I was so busy at the show I didnt buy a single plant.D

That's sad!

Lots of ribbons again, bravo Rick :clap: !!!! and thanks for the pics!!!! Jean

Some stunning plants and flowers there Rick. And with all those plants you have already, you add more to the collection. There does sound some stunning multis in there and your greenhouse must be looking very busy at the moment! Congratulations on the awards also, well deserved.

I'll have to post some of the flowers from the show which I haven't done so details can be seen. The HF is really olive green.

I have a one growth one and wish I grew multies better!


That's sad!

Come to TX and I'll give you a demo!

Lots of ribbons again, bravo Rick :clap: !!!! and thanks for the pics!!!! Jean

Keeping in mind there is only Doug and myself that really display slippers. There was 4 plants (I think) in the Galveston OS floor display and one phrag in all of the Houston floor display. One vendor had two, the album phillie and a Chi Hua Dancer.
I ended up with 16 ribbons, 2 glass trophies and a HCC. Doug had lots of ribbons and 3 glass trophies. If there would of been more entries I would of ended up with far fewer!

Great show Rick. Particularly by yourself. You could have had your own show. Congrats on the award. I told you that Julius was good. It does look amazing in that photo. You spent up big too. Those purchases should be fantastic.

 

[SlipperFan]

I think Rick is inviting competition. I think we should all move to Texas with our slipper collections. :evil:

 

[Ozpaph]
