Dear All, The participation in the topic of the week is dwindling, but before it ends I'd like to finish out the color spectrum for favorite bulbs. I've been working on htm documents I've added to the wiki summarizing the favorites people have chosen and linking the choices to pictures we have on the wiki. We started out with a bang with yellow even though a lot of people said they didn't like yellow flowers. Perhaps it was all those Narcissus fans in our group. But since then even though our list has grown in number fewer people have nominated your favorites. So I propose letting this topic run for two weeks so everyone will have a chance to write. Looking at the pictures of some of the choices for pink and purple I found myself understanding why we had that color discussion. There were choices for purple I thought looked pink and pink choices I thought looked purple. Perhaps it is just my monitor. You can look at those htm documents from the wiki topic of the week page for 2004 as I have finished adding them. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… At last Diane W. will have her chance as she early on wished we'd talk about blue flowers. Please nominate your favorite blue bulbs that you grow. I expect there will be some purple-blue overlap as we had with orange-yellow and purple-pink. Please include where you live in your post. I hope we can finish the favorite colors in December with white. Coming soon: Haemanthus Mary Sue
