Karen I still think this has more petals than Skyliner - what do you think about the colour, is it pinker or just my poor eyesight. lol.

I think you are dead right Mum. It is too pink, has too many petals and is too white as well! Back to the drawing board. Of course, It is probably a really old var that may have gone out of cultivation now...although you would think it would be very popular!

Think Bocca Negra is the most likely one Karen.

Yes Motinot it is a lovely colour, we have been trying to identify it, think we might have succeeded at last.

Aha! See, isn't that amazing that that should come in the magazine today! I would have forgotten about it if it had been two months ago!

Isn't it strange, yes, I know, things keep happening like that to me, someone says something and you were only talking about that particular thing and wow it is amazing. I keep meaning to ask you how did Callum go with his tutors, and of course his other exams.

I am just sitting here wondering if he is out of his last exam yet. Tutors were fine, just said all he could do was take the resit.
