Ok...This is my favorite! Here it is when it turned orange-ish...

Here's a bloom after it turned red. I must say the red is so amazing right now! The cooler weather we are having has really brought out the color. Unlike 'Tomato Soup', the blooms are very red and seem to be more uniform and last longer too!...

Here's a photo I took attempting to show both colors in one photo. If you don't have this plant, you should get some!

Looks great. I haven't seen any red in my "Hot Summer" blooms.....just some pink. If it lasts and puts out October blooms perhaps it will happen. Northern gardeners should definitely achieve the full range of colors I would think.
