Carina in bloom

Shelburne Falls, MA(Zone 5a)

Carina has 2 flowers open-3 to go. I can never get my camera to get the black cherry color-always looks a bit more orange but here she is. She's a mini I got in bloom last year.

Another. I'll post again when all the blooms are open. She is like the color of velvet.

Oh, I like that one!

How "mini" are the flowers? I have discovered this year that I truly adore the miniatures, especially the ones with vibrant colors such as yours!

You would definitely like this one then. The stem is about 15" and the flowers are 4.5-5" I'd say. You might like Pink Floyd which is a rich bright pink.

I must pick up Carina next season. I almost bought it last fall.

Oh everyone should have Pink Floyd! One of my all time favorites :)

I just wish I could take an accurately colored pic! So frustrating! Here's last year.

Boojum - off the topic, but is that a real lizard on the door? in the last photo.

Ha! Not in Massachusetts! It's a beautiful metal one straight from my life in Tucson, AZ.
