    Smile Burrageara Nelly Isler

    As luck would have it today I ran an errand at a box store in the area and of course had to at least check out the plant selection, promising though that I would only get something if it were something I really wanted.


    And lo and behold, one last Nelly Isler, which was right at the top of my "Wish List"... For cheap too! It also has 6 more buds coming for a total of 10 flowers. (funny no one else who was with me seems nearly as excited as I am!)

    (didn't have the patience for good pics, but just for kicks here are a couple)

    Geez the BBS around me don't have those at all let alone cheaply. Never tried growing that one though I've always liked it.

    Great find!

    Well, it was labeled as a "Cambria" just like everything else, but the sticky tag on the pot itself says Nelly Isler and it is pretty recognizable anyway - I knew what it must be the minute my friend pointed it out (I almost overlooked it - and only 5.99 Euro!)

    Usually/mostly the stores have the standard phals, etc, but every once in awhile there are some I recognize. Have seen for example the Tahoma Glaciers and the Peggy Carpenters too before.
