Great pictures dcdahlia love those Myra. The nicest I have seen this season and I showed against a few down here and beat them with zoe which I am thrilled with.

Can I ask how many up did you grow wyns ? I grew 6up wings and three pairs down got the size but petal lay was not good for me. Also a bit streaky petal in some. Think I might have restricted it a little to much. Colour is stunning and good stems.

I am undecided as to try wyns again. I think I will try a couple but 7up wings and two pairs down.

I am annoyed with myself my best zoe and dianes of the year I forgot to photograph at my second show. Did not photograph any of my exhibits that day and had two firsts ! Haha

Thanks for info ste b need to think carefully what to grow as medium semi cactus might not even grow a medium . Got a shortlist. Plenty of time .

Won the seedling at wisley grown by Darren Everest on behalf of the raiser. Like Brenda t but more petal and a bit more of a lilac blush. Here is a picture
