This is my very first reginae alba, purchased last Autumn from Hillside Nursery. Appropriately, it was my last cyp to bloom. It is simply gorgeous!

Notice in the bottom photo, the 'mega reginae' is straining to take a closer look at its new neighbor!

I had to laugh when I saw one of the stems of the mega reginae bent over and straning to get a closer look at the new comer, the reginae alba.

Now I am thinking the mega reginae is a boy plant and, of course, the reginae alba, would be the flowering equivilant of a platnium blonde!

Did I hear it just say, "Hey, baby!"?????
