Ray,Randy....
This is not Col. Bob Bullock, I will show you what CBB looks like when we walk in the garden after the sale. I also will have one for sale, which I expect to be snapped up in a nano second. I'm about as certain as you can get.
The one in the pictures here almost looks "Wilma-ish", but I'm not commited to that until I see it in person.

Jeff, this is a different plant that i got from the same person ID'd as Col Bob Bullock. The leaf shape is the same, although the coloring is different. Maybe it's the lighting, but it no way looks like the one you posted in the Palmtalk forum. Im confused again.

Randy,
I kind of feel like I was tricked. The colors of your first group look nothing like the last two pictures. The lighting is totally different from the two groups. Anyways, hopefully we can clear it up this weekend with the plant in the nursery, and if you can, your more than welcome to come over after the end of the day to see others in the yard. I hope you can.

Randy,
Mine looks more like the second set of photos. It's the same plant in different light.
Jeff,
I'm only identifying the plant based on Bob's comments. He's very good at identifying plants but we all make mistakes.

Wasn't this plant finally ID'd as Wilma. Bob Alonzo made ID's with the plants that Jeff brought to the Holiday Social that the Glock's hosted.

Well, we all know what Wilma is, the Barbara Bush in the book I think has been identified as the true Evening Embers......which has proved to be a very rare croton, very slow growing and hopefully saved for the future.
