Hi Dave,
My Mr. Lincolns don't look like yours,but it's hard to be sure.
pretty though...

That's what *I* was thinking...

Of course, it could be similar to a blueing situation (a function of
age of the bloom as it seems to be getting more purple as time goes
on). When I got the plant, the bloom was already fully opened and this
was a week ago. I took the picture two days ago, a day after I clipped
it from the bush).

I'll have to say that it has a pretty intense aroma...

So, you guys know that I picked up a "Mr. Lincoln". However, I have to
wonder if it really *is* Mr. Lincoln.

I thought that Mr. Lincoln was a pure, deep red. However, this very
big, "smelly" g bloom has a lot of purple in it (at least it seems
that way to me).

Tell me what you think:

Here's an "arty" pic of the bloom, but of course, you won't be able to
use it for identification:
