It's gorgeous, which one is it, Ponty ?

I don't know, Louise. The nearest I had seen was a "Princess Frederika" at Rosemoor two weeks ago but it was a touch more bronze and a little less pink than mine. Then, today, I saw yours which seems a darker pink and then I found one on Floralhead's page which seems to be a match so I have just asked her if she knows.

Go to a website called Viv Marsh Postal Plants and look at the full list of them, you might be able to identify it there !
It looks like one of mine, the one called Alexis, or Little Miss Davina ?

I've got pictures of some of mine in the 'my garden' section of my profile.

Thanks for the tip Louise. I will look it up. I was referring to Little Miss Davinia when I said it seemed a darker pink. I'll see what Viv Marsh says!

I could not find it on Viv Marsh's collection Louise. Your Little Miss Davina is the nearest I have seen but I still think mine is a much paler pink. Maybe she mutated from sheer terror before I rescued her from the dump.:-))

Haha, maybe !

I find mine have a tendency to produce ever so slightly paler blooms as they reach cooler temps. but it could just me me imagining it !!!

I'll watch them more carefully next year Louise but I must say I like this shade.
I took half a dozen to get this BB - I'm no photographer!,

Ponty, your patience paid off, from all those shots this one shows it beautifully !!!
I do the same, take numerous pictures and then at least one of them is good !
