New Hybrid day 2, much happier with it today...
« on: July 13, 2007, 11:01:26 AM »
This is the second day bloom of my new hybrid. Unlike yesterday, the lavender color has changed to a much more stable medium blue. I expect future blooms to be better as first blooms are generally not typical of what is to come.
The petaloid stamens are a bonus as well, I expect this plant to become a full double as it matures.

Currently the spread is only 25 inches and the bloom is 3.5 inches. Can you say small.

Unlike yesterday, today I am very excited about this lily with high expectations that I couldnt even dream about yesterday.

Cheers,
Sean
