Iochroma 'Royal Blue'

Post by kHT »

DH and I decided to head to Shorty's to see if the Brugmansia were out yet. Well I spotted 4 of the Iochromas while the
guy helping us went to check to see if the Brugs had arrived yet. I noted that they had them listed as 'Sky Blue' and it just
didn't look like the ones I has seen prior. The poor kid that helped us well was new and only there a month, so he thought the
Iochromas were the Brugs!! I told him they were cousins but not what I wanted so he came back and told me they just arrived.
I got to go look and I already had them so I opted to the get the Iochroma. I was totally on the mark but all I'll say is I'm in heaven
looking upward at all the blooms. I did call them back and told them oooops!!
