The pink comes from the pod parent. Nice strong throat.

Another flower open yesterday and a much stronger colour, like the blurred purple band.

Then you should give it another year. I have become confused on how much a flower can improve from the first scape to when it reblooms. Look in my Flickr album for [(Amber Rhum × Kazoo) × Life is a Highway]; and below the name is a location number of B4U#39/3T-91. The first one should be the 7th, 9th, & 10th photos. Compare it to numbers 28 & 29, which was the rebloom. [The 1st photo is a different seedling of the same cross that managed to remain the same when it rebloomed in number 8].

Ooooo I ll take a look later Wylie :-)
There was another open from this cross yesterday something had bent the stem so couldn't get a good picture very similar to the peachy one the other day but bigger flowers loads of buds and a proliferation! think I ll keep both till next year and definitely this one :-)

I took a metal coat hanger, cut the hook off, cut what was left in half. Then I straightened it, and made a hook on one end like an upside down L. It can be stuck in the ground next to the plant and the stalk put through the hook to hold it upright. Then I take a photo and release it.
You know some of these doubles can be very top heavy when they open.

That's a really good idea, I looked round for something to prop it up with, I'll take one onto the allotment I think ;-)
