I would choose Fort Point as well! It's just gorgeous! I like the Bobcat too but I see it for sale a lot so it's not as much as a "thrill" you know? But it's still so pretty.

I think it depends more on your conditions and ability to grow the various plants. Colmanara Wildcat will probably be the easiest to grow and bloom season after season. Also, with so many flowers, it will bloom for the longest period.

If it were me, I would go with the wildcat bobcat. They bloom 2x per year, with months of blooms to follow.
It does well in lower light, loves water like a fish - easy grower too.
All your choices are nice Cam.

Well..... I suppose it wouldn't hurt to buy two

so you folks obviously love the bloom of "Fort Point" as much as I do, and as phantasm and gloria bring up, the wildcat grows well AND is an easy bloomer... sooo since Fort point is a relatively small plant.. maybe I'll buy.. say.... 2...

When I looked at the list before opening the pictures, I assumed my first choice would be the Blc...but I was wrong! Shhhh...don't tell my husband

The Fort Point is magnificent...then the Blc

...or all of them!

Al, thanks for bringing up Todd's photo...what a showstopper!!!
