Oh!!! That's fabulous! When did you take that? Not today, too dark! I love it!!

(hey, can we post foliage pics here? LOL!! I was reading about the Japanese and their love of foliage, earlier, and thinking how smart that was!)

:lol: No, that was the last blooming. Right now, as you know it is already in bud. The first flower is now open, still growing and the remaining buds are also opening very slowly. My Julius remaining buds are also opening and the flowers are HUGE compared to the roeb.

Yes, the Japanese growers love the foliages as well as the flowers, especially plants with variegated growths.

Oh, I sort of wondered that, but was thrown off by the current copywrite. Sorry. I'm a bit dopey today, apparently.
