Talking Den Waianae Valley 'Ruffles'
This one is going to the MOS show and hoping it gets pulled for judging. One bud got knocked off

I looked up the previously awarded and my flower is bigger and has a better crystalline green. Flower count is about the same as the awarded. I think I have a fair chance.

This was a $5 rescue from a grower who was going out of business. It was slated for the dumpster. It has a gorgeous bloom.

Can't believe that cutie was headed for the dumpster! If it wins an award that would be great. I like the color a lot. Not quite white, not quite green.
