CRAZY LEGS

Sorry FF - clearing up some old business.

Pooch - so tell me this(and you FF) that this NOID doesn't look like the Gerry Hoek above

Al, I think it looks similar...but it's hard to tell from a picture. It also looks a lot like INNOCENCE.

Al, I think you may be onto something there; your Gerry Hoek looks very close to FF's GH photo. Innocence looks like the petals are more flared and deeper, whiter in the center.

FF you're killing me with these perfect photos! I feel as if I've wandered the rows at Swan Island myself. Very nice of you to take the time to post them all.

I love the Heather Marie! Thanks very much.

Hopefully all of the pictures will make it easier for all of us addicts to make out wish lists for next year! LOL.

Al, I think your plant is Gerry Hoek, as the weather cools it gets pinker(brighter) but the white toward the center remains. It has been warm here the last couple of days.

FF, do what did you order there???
Did you get out of there without ordering anything???
I will say that Swan Island Dahlia seems to take the real picture of the bloom. No fake color scheme.
But thanks for taking them all. I have seen a few I wouldn't mind having!

daisy~

I actually managed to make it out of there without ordering any (yet that is, LOL!). However, I have all of the ones that I WANT underlined and there are about 60 of them!

I wanted to mention to anyone thinking of going to the Swan Island show this year that they have a special. If you pre-order (while you're there) for 2007 and your order is over $50, you get free shipping.
