Kevin,

That is a good question. Dennis Tsang mentions a form that is "spidery." We
need more ijnput on that question.

Mine showed more of the pink in the first 3 - 5 days. The picture as posted
is what they look like today.

Did you see the pictures of my Hipp. intiflorum?  It is an orange-red.

Doug
