This could be the last set - we may get bad frost tonight.

Kogashiyama Fukurin - I was waiting for this one to open - I already posted this plant from June, July, August and September.

All Plain Green X Dostoyevsky #2 - The late scape on this seedling surprised me.

I got another surprise from one of my volunteers with a late scape. I showed this plant in the "what I think are rectifolia types". It's labeled FLW V-1. It seems to be having trouble opening fully. I see this a lot with late flowers - luckily not with the ones above.
