Phrag. Eric Young
This is my first Phrag. ever, and I like it a lot. I've been a bit scared to try one, but decided, what the hey. I've got one more that should be open in a couple of days. We'll see.

Nice choice for a first Phrag. I'll bet you have fun with this one - very nice colors and form.

Beautiful, Kim! I really love these soft pink Phrags. But for the moment, just don't have the space. Hopefully that will change as soon as I can convince my bf I need some more room.
Nice growin'!!

Great flower, Kim! It seems that you can't really go wrong with Eric Young, every single one that I have laid eyes on has been pretty. I have a compot of them that I deflasked a couple of months ago, that's how much I like them! So, in several years, we'll see if that is actually true!
Thanks for sharing your blooms with us - it will help tide me over in the mean time!

I second that.  Phrags are addictive! They are easy to grow and bloom, hard to kill, and flower sequentially for months! What more can you ask for??
Beautiful Eric Young, great choice for your first phrag!
