Moonlight you were asking about Marston Sharon it was listed wrongly it should have been Named Marston Karen, well It is Karen that looks like Jomanda although it is a miniature dec orange Terracotta colour. There is a picture of it in the winter bulletin. It is available from Frank Taylor I have just spoken with Frank a couple of minutes ago and he confirmed he had the wrong name, so it is Marston Karen.

Typical, I've just thrown Hapet Vinette, as although it was a nice flower, I'm not that keen on Pompon's. It was a healthy cutting from Halls, which made a good size tuber. Just wish I'd known . This is a photo I took mid July.

@markymate not to worry AND THANK YOU should have asked on here first. I added vinete in to make up the numbers as the others I wanted where sold out. I quite like poms not the one I grew this year called bantling that I did not like. Strange habit and length of stem. Only doing 2 poms this and minley Carol. Would try gurtla but I do not like the colour. I only actually Ordered 5 tubers. Leaving some room for my other exhibition extras. So far ordered Dame deirdre yellow semi cactus Ken stock charity one Mayan pearl double orchid Ken stock strike a light my avatar Ken stock show n tell large fimbriated USA one Don't think any of these are showable maybe strike a light as bi colour. Although dame deirdre looks reasonable. Here she is

Good Evening Raymond I have a nice Kelsea Carla tuber dug up with your name on it. Good evening Ian. I guess how can I refuse kelsea Carla. She is a tall grower ? I might still do Ruskin Andrea or something else. Many sincere thanks !

Had Peach Athalie as a mystery tuber from The National Dahlia Collection this year, lovely coloured miniature cactus. Just kept the cuttings as pot tubers, so hopefully get them through the winter
