Amazing spider, man (i couldn't resist.) is it all yellow on the back?

I also really like #2.

Thanks David
L-25 I hate to say, but I don't know, never even thought to look.
I will get back to you after the next bloom.
The second bloom S-11-N is probably the best polychrome I have to date, getting some attention for sure.

#2 is gorgeous! They are all really nice!

Thanks rockNhostas

The big purple is a mixed background color of pale yellow to pale purple, it mimic's the face of the bloom except for the sepals which have the yellow going higher

Wow, a 9" flower is just phenomenal! I have a couple cultivars this year with 8" flowers that are jaw dropping, but Wow!

Hi Chris
It was jaw dropping alright, what was even better was that the picture was taken at 4:37 PM after I got home from work.
It was 94 degrees, hot and humid, and the bloom wasn't faded a bit, that was pretty cool as most darks tend to melt in the heat of the day

Wow! These are all beautiful! I love #1. It's so girly. The fringe on #2 is really cool! I also love #5. Love the yellow on the back that Tigger pointed out too.
