Hi All,

As an update to the preiously discussed unpublished award to this grex, the AOS evidently never received the original awards info from the Chicago JC after the award was granted. Thanks to Jim Spatzek, Chicago JC Chair, this has been rectified, and publication should now proceed.

Attached is a photo of a Fox Valley Fireball that was kind enough to bloom in time for yesterday's IOS Christmas party at Hausermann's! Smaller than e-spice's clone at 9.3 cm natural spread and 2.5 cm petal width, but still beautiful and happy to carry the colors of the season.

Enjoy!

Hi Fren,

It's actually a three growth plant, with two previously bloomed growths and the mature growth blooming. While first bloom seedlings can bloom on a single growth, the blooms tend to be somewhat smaller, but still nicely colored. This grex really doesn't reach it's real potential until it's bloomed two or three times.

Thanks,
 
Snow!

We're trying for three on one spike now. Keep your fingers crossed for me. It's snowing here in Tennessee tonight as you can see from the picture.
