I like the deformed flowers! Am I alone?

Here's a newly opened Nelly Moser, 2010, looking odd but she returned to normal quickly.

I agree about the sizing on that pot.

Our Jackmanii's generally don't bloom this soon so maybe patience is the answer.

All of your photos are delightful.

Pink Champagne is now in bloom, the third to open. I can spot Omoshiro #2 in bloom but haven't gotten to take a photo yet.
