Tammie!!!! Look whats blooming!
« on: May 17, 2008, 02:15:13 PM »
To give everyone else some background, I was looking fo a Hollandia hardy and some Joey tomocik's (JT). Tammie had some JT's and thought she had at least one Hollandia.  We were not 100 percent sure that the Hollandia wa a hollandia, there was an off chance that it was a Gloire. For some reason it decided to bloom under water but I would say it is Hollandia (I meant to say Gloire... Tired from woring in (yes IN) the pond in the sunall day! :) ). It is a pale pink.....

Tammie later in the year you sent me a few others, any idea what they may be? (2nd picture is the first of 4 to bloom) it almost looks like a lighter version of my Escarboucle (3rd Picture) any ideas?

Anyone is welcome to speculate what it may be.

Andy!  Yeah!  That first lily is for sure a Glorie (Glorie du Temple-sur-Lot)!   @O@  Beautiful!  Doesn't bloom very often tho...   If the second lily was one I sent you then it is a Hollandia.  I only have the 3 hardy lilies - Joey Tomocik, Glorie and Hollandia. 
Congratulations!
Oh, and since I'm so bad on returning emails and PM's - I'll answer you PM here, okay?  The answer is yes, got it - thank you!

Nope that first one is definitely Gloire du Temple sur Lot- not Hollandia... And how lucky for you to get a bloom from Gloire!!!!  Congrats...

As always it is hard to speculate what the others might be without definite possibilities to choose from like you had on the first one...

Yep, if Tammie definitely sent you a Hollandia, the second pic does look very similar to my Hollandia too  :)

Great to see that someone got Glorie du Temple-sur-Lot bloom!  How big of a pot is it in?

That last one looks like my James brydon.  The color looks a little off in my pic.  Your picture is the true color.

What is greaty is there is a second bloom coming up right next to it.  Kat, it is in a real big pot in full sun, (my clay bottom pond) and it is planted directly into the pond bottom.

Hollandia And a Gloire du Temple sur Lot, now if I could just find a Mayla!

Clay bottom pond .... I bet that is what it takes to make it a happy lily.  Glad you gave it a great home to thrive in.  Keep the pics coming of that one because it is one that I'll probably never see a bloom of in person  O0
