If there is righteousness in the heart, There will be beauty in character. If there is beauty in character, There will be harmony in the home. When there is harmony in the home, There will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, There will be peace in the world. Bhagawan Shri Satya Sai Baba

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.

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."

Rationalizing pen and ink purchases since 1967.

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

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

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

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.

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
