She's fine, but not my favorite of the alternates; that honor would go to February Violet! These guys are so expensive, I'm not even at a point where I would seek out my own birthflower, June Rose. I did buy a Cotton Candy with a bad symbol, but going flor the real deal is a bit much for me now!

There is a completionist inside me that wants every pony ever made, but that's not something I'm currently pursuing! I do keep ponies I don't have, though, and would prize her for being so rare if I were lucky enough to find her in the wild!

Also, there are two variants: one with this symbol, and a rarer one with the colors switched. I prefer the latter!

I wish I had her but she’s probably out of my price range.

Huh. She's new to me or at least I didn't remember she was green. Green ponies are few and far between, so she's cool in my book.

There are actually 2 alt versions of her. The pictures is most common then there is one with reversed coloured symbols.. green leaves and red berries she is known as the alt alt version. I believe the alt alt version was only found in nz and au

I like her better than the regular birthflower set, mostly because she's green and there aren't enough green ponies, but she's probably out of my price range and I don't like her enough to spring for her. I have Minty, another green collector-pose pony, and that's enough for me.

Pass; she's pretty but I'm not really interested in collecting any of the birthflower ponies, regular or alternative.

Another quirk of the alt set is that their symbols aren't mirrored; on the originals, the same part of the symbol would face the tail on both sides, while on the alts, the same part would face left on both sides. So her symbols are on the same way as the one at the top, you're just seeing different sides. This is the kind of thing you need to know if you're going to make a replica like I plan to (of June Rose, but same quirk)!

Oh, now I like that alternate version! I'll still probably never get her because of price, but I can always dream that she'll randomly fall into my hands someday!
