Show me your Pinks!

I'm looking thru my garden and thinking "Which pinks do I love?"
Can't go much pinker than "Melissa Sue"!

How about a delicate baby pink? Cherished TB

Appleblossom Pink is an early Intermediate--shorter & tough to go thru spring freezes!

Absolutely gorgeous!!

I had a number of new-to-me pinks bloom this year ... all medians.

Among the TBs, the only two pinks that have managed to stay alive here, though they don't bloom reliably, are BEVERLY SILLS and CHERUB'S SMILE (in the photo).

I threw out Beverly Sills after waiting 4 years for a bloom. Too susceptible to problems here.

Hidden World is a solid pink and free from problems.

Bev took 5 yrs to bloom for me and gave me only one deformed flower on a stunted stalk on maiden bloom. That was last year. This year she bloomed beautifully on two different clumps with multiple stalks at full height with perfect flowers.

This one looks almost white, but is really pale, clear pink...'Venetian Glass'

'Anaconda Love' is a very bold pink!

How about a brand new Joe Ghio intro...'Bowled Over'

One of the queens of pink, IMHO...'Kitty Kay'

this is my favorite and it a BB
Pink Bubbles

Tazzy, I see you came in from the sprinkler to post with us. Love that name--Pink Bubbles!

Flowerfreenzy--can I come & dig in your garden???? :)

Not sure if this should be here or in the speckled/plic thread but here's DELIGHTFUL KID, a BB. It's a lovely pink colored standard with a fall that is white with purple edge.

I just LOVE an iris that can go both ways! Here's one that can't decide if it is red or pinkk: Rose Caprice

Inspiration is another one of my big old historical irises. Lovely two tone rose.

Champagne Girl--isn't she wonderful?

'Cast of Characters' is another frilly pink that I love...

'Grateful Citizen' is palest pink.

I think 'In the Stars' is lovely...

In a kiss gets my vote! Unusual color combo....

Another Blyth creation! They're so interesting!

Rhapsody in Bloom --Pink and ruffled!

Pink Plume is an old one---really more orchid than pink in my garden.

I love the first one you posted Wanda..its is definately PINK !

Ditto on that first one. Really nice. Well the last one also.

Rhapsody in Bloom is a rich pink with blue undertones on the falls. nice.

Vanity - great substance, prolific bloomer, delicate clear pink.

Yeah! I just bought Vanity.

Does anyone have Painted Cloud? I think it is a rebloomer.

This is Intermediate 'Concertina'. It blooms and blooms and blooms with a lot of stalks and bud count. Pale but prolific.

Codi's Angel Face. Blooms all at once - lovely show.

'Happenstance' - Great substance on a long blooming Iris.

I love the beards on 'Concertina'.

I'm not sure that this isn't raspberry instead of pink - well yes it is more raspberry than pink. 'Social Graces'. I certainly need some strong pinks in my garden. I've got a few coming. I just finished putting them in the ground today. Hurray! Had to lose a whole lot of Mondo Grass to do it too.

This rose & white beauty is Brazen Beauty,
