Here’s a taste of some of Paul’s C. parviflorum v. pubescens. First, a shot of some in the backyard:

And a huge flowered clone that also has excellent color. How big is this one Paul?

And a form that has extra long petals - is it a phrag wanna be?

Pretty cool stuff Paul!

Very beautiful. I see some in cages -- they're wild, right???

Wonderful shots Tom!
Thanks

Yes, they are nice shots. I'd like to emphasize that these are Paul's photos, not mine. He simply asked me to post them for him. He has a good eye I think.

Hey Dot, actually these are all cultivated in his yard. He puts the cages in to deter deer. The damn things are becoming the locusts of the northeastern states!

Actually, even worse than the deer is a Woodchuck that lives in my yard. Without the cages, the plants would be mowed down.

I have been trying to keep him busy with apples!

Now the Parviflorums are in full bloom.
