    Wow, Bruce, you're right - what a show! This is the biggest Leptotes bicolor I've seen yet - it must be very happy growing potted. Great photos - I've noticed that these are particularly uncooperative in photographs - they seem to want to bloom upside down, regardless of how they're mounted or potted. Must be some trick to that....

    So pretty! The one beside the angel looks like an evil monkey dressed as an angel....out for blood. Of course, it could be my antihistamines!

    Good growing, Bruce. One flower is open for mine, but I am waiting a few more to open before I post mine.
