This MDB began opening late yesterday afternoon. When I saw it for the first time this morning I was astonished at its unique color! I am aware the AIS Checklist description uses the word 'purple', BUT in MY eyes this is too exotic in color: It appears to have a combination of magenta, red and blue; and the white beards are the frosting on the cake! Exceptional! AIS Checklist description follows: "(Tom Johnson, R. 2000). Sdlg. Q61B, MDB 7" (18 cm) E & RE. "S. and style arms dark purple; F. darker purple, dark purple band; beards white, gold in throat, wide and bushy; ruffled; pronounced sweet fragrance. Bee Mused X Tweety Bird., Mid-America 2001."

Here is my first picture ever of 'Wise'. I am hoping anyone who sees this in my journal can appreciate it as much as I do.

This is the first bloom of 2008, and I decided to get a picture in spite of the hurricane-like winds! This shot was in blazing sunlight, so the viewer must make that distinction.
