(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-1HDajkRr4Bg/TnXlsOogtII/AAAAAAAACHo/LfoKssBvYBQ/s800/e_IMG_1295.jpg)
Very nice flowers torka specially the pink one ,and the troat of the ascap seems to be a bit orange ,and the petals ,aren´t yellow
This little diferences from the usual flower makes them very atractive

It is a lot of pestles
your asterias red flower sowing from 2004 is absolutely and stunningly beautiful. Where did you get this great flower from? I definitely have to ask my florists in Dudley (http://www.serenataflowers.com) if they have a flower like this - I so want one. It is so pretty. I am really lovestruck.

Astro, you have some woderfull plants, like that v-type behind the red flower!

Thank you very much for the compliments. This year, my friend from Moscow Evgeny Safronov had brought many of their plants to non-me so that I could get a lot of interesting seeds. Some plants do not belong to me, these are my guests. In the autumn guests go home.
