Craig's N. Avalanche
« on: April 29, 2008, 08:12:47 AM »
Thank God for my wife.
I have been working too much to get to see any blooms the last week.
I knew Craig's N. Avalance was going to open.
My wife was able to get these 2nd day bloom shots yesterday.
This is the first bloom for me on this great new award winning lily.

I hope to see today's 3rd day bloom myself.
I expect it will puff up and get the pom pom shape like N. Midnight Embers gets.

That is very unique.  Very nice.  Is it a prolific bloomer?

Joyce, that is why I wait in line to get them... ;)

Landey, It should be pretty good with the right fertilizer. It has very hearty genes.
My N. Foxfire and N. Pink Flamingo throw a lot of flowers throughout the year.

Sunbeam, It is cool. We had nights in the 40s so it tinged pink the last day. I will try to post a shot.
It did not pin cushion like I thought it might but it is only the first flower and the weather was not the best yet.

That is a different lily look!  The pad is interesting in a good way too.  Pretty soft pink color.

How do you get in line for Craig's water lilies? His website says he only sells to the trade.
Us hobbyists don't know where to go.... >:(-

enzo who posts here from time to time is sort of Craig's protege.
He gets the opportunity to sell some of Craig's material through his Utopia Aquatic site.
I always try to go through him to make sure I can get the newest releases.
