Tulip...I was thinking it would be more pink or yellow than red. This reminds me of a poppy flower. Bright, bright, bright!

This looks a bit too much towards the orange side of the spectrum to make me call this a true red. But it's an interesting color nonetheless.

Thanks for posting the review.

Don't mention poppies... that's a whole different show..! Imagine the red tulips with the black insides.. this is that red.

I apologise for the rendering of the image. I would say this is a very true red - certainly compared to the many, many reds I have. It is a lovely, playful colour.

It would be interesting to see this compared to Piolot's Fuyu-Gaki (persimmon).

Bhavna, thank you so much for your reviews of these Diamine Flower inks--I was impressed enough to order a set. Even though I am an amateur musician rather than a horticulturist, I like the floral inks much better than the music inks.

 

We should all keep in mind the late Dorothy Parker, who said, "You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think."

If I haven't said it lately, I love your reviews almost as much as I love getting letters from you.

No contest, each is very unique and delicious in its own right. Hope you have had a chance to play with both by now.

Oh I love horticulture, but I do stick to my day job (and the plants give thanks..)! I am so happy my reviews were useful to you. Have you received your inks yet? I'd love to hear what you think! I love all the colours! Thank you for your kind comments, enjoy your inks.

And you just made my day. Thank you! Bx

PS, get ready for the new Diamine 150 anniversary set reviews coming to a screen near you very soon!
