Got the first noid from Michigan Bulb a couple years ago for Daring Deception. The second one from Walmart for Pardon Me.

On your last post Mike, it looks like Fairy Tale Pink to me.
That looks like FTP to me, too. I couldn't tell you what they others are.

Thanks for the input Cindy and Karen.
You are welcome Mike. Check the reviews on Michigan Bulb in the Garden Watchdog. I don't think they are too good. I personally would not buy from them. My father has bought from them and hardly anything lives.
That CRIMSON PIRATE does have a striking resemblance to your red NOID, Mike. I have CP myself and didn't catch that.

There are also some differences, but that could be individual garden variance.
Here is the Plant files link: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/26583/
It's sometimes hard to tell a flower in it's first, or even second year of bloom, as they don't really come into their own till year 3. For this reason I feel only pics of blooms on well established plants should be put up in the plant files or other databases.

So true. FYI, my Crimson Pirate was purchased from Leightonhill, AKA Lisa Rodway, from the LA and planted the spring of 2009.
Mine bloomed for a long time. It started in early June and continued to have blooms into late July! As I recall there was another thread that talked about a NOID that might be Crimson Pirate here: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1203494
I went back and looked at it and one of them was one of yours Mike. http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=8779230
LOL Is this the same one or a different plant?
Laura, it look totally diffrent to me. I will pay closer attention this season. This one seem to have more substance (whatever that mean) LOL!! My CP came from Walmart for Pardon Me. The one above came from M/Bulb for Daring Deception.

Bev, I will put this one down as FTP for sure. thanks for the input. Mike
BTW, how is the hand doing? Ready for spring?
I think you are correct. Well, you will just have to keep looking. :-(
