Goose Creek is Definitely Pink (pics)

I can only wish that the real Goose Creek would show up in my garden. Two straight years of failed germination
and now this:


RED, RED, and RED
They tasted pretty good in my opinion but I want the real deal.

Jeff,

Mine were more of a Cranberry tinge, compared to the ones in your photo.

I've linked up with someone who claims to buy Goose Creek plants directly from Jimmy Williams in the LA area. This "bypasses" Laurel, who seems to have shipped to more than one person, something that was not actually the Goose Creek plants ordered. I am trying to justify a 900 mile round-trip to LA sometime in the Spring to pick up a dozen of the real Goose Creek plants. Dear Wife thinks I am NUTS!

Jeff, interesting, about what size are those Reds? If you want some seeds of GC pink that I got exclusively from Ray I would be more than happy to share. Maybe you could send a few of those Red GC seeds my way?

Deep pink is probably one way to describe the real deal. Based on all I have read about Goose Creek that the description of the size and shape fits what I have the only difference is the colour. I one what happened along the way.

Ray, I know the feeling of tracking down the real deal for seeds.
