Hi Linda,

The second shot looks a lot like
my climbing America.

Are the buds orange? I have one coming along, but the buds a bright
orange and I'm scared.

Yup! Bright orange. It does
mellow to that salmon pink.
For some reason the blooms this year
are twice the size of last year.

Most of my basals are still
a shocking red too. Looks wierd right
now.
