The foliage of T. underwoodii is particularly good, isn't it?

These are fabulous! We must get a scent facility for the forum!! I so want to enjoy their fragrance as well as their good looks! Just a wonderful plant, in all its forms... so grateful to you for these pix, Aaron.

here is one of my favourites ex Michael Campbell way back at my first Dublin Group weekend. Not multiplying fast but the flowers are huge. What a difference "rain" makes ;)

And one that has unusual shaped flowers

Mark,

That pink is absolutely superb!!!!  Great distribution of colour and awesome form.  Would have to be one of the best rivales I have seen on the Net (and way better than anything I have seen in person too!! LOL).

I just won the MC Hammer trophy for a pot of the same strain. Same one I got last year for a Daphne SDR2. The trophy is for the best in section C which is for beginners. After a year only got it polished and engraved yesterday and it's mine again  ;D

Well done Mark.
I am just lifting a few plants to fill the benches at our show next week. Not aiming for trophies, just getting them there is a major effort for me. I certainly appreciate all the work and time serious competitors put into filling the show with lovely plants for all us to wonder at.

Really, the MC Hammer trophy? Are you having us on? Isn't MC Hammer a past-it rapper?
Whatever, congrats on the win!

Congrats Mark. Star of television and of the Show benches. It isn't fair that so much talent should be vested in one person! :P
