Lovely, I really like MEDITERRENEAN SAILOR, & Wispy Rays is always a favorite with me. I like Munsons, I keep meaning to get more.

A stunning batch of bloomers. ROAD TO SAMARKAND is my favorite. That white throat is really usual and very pretty. But wow, what a batch of buds there on BERMA ABERCROMBIE. Anothing that can produce so many flowers has got to be top notch in any garden.

Having a slow, lazy morning so looked at your pictures again closer & realized the buds on Berma too. Wow, I would think that is especially amazing for your zone, isn't it? I have a few that have huge bud counts, but they are small flowers, that one looks huge, & pretty to boot. I may have to find that one!

My favorite vote goes to Vulcan Logic and Berma Abercrombie.

Mediterranean Sailor is quite handsome. Hmm, Royal Renaissance hasn't done anything here.

I was trying to pick a favorite and looked for a long time, but couldn't. They're all so pretty. Love all the bright,
bold colors!

Best is correct!! I just can't choose between Road To Samarkand, Vulcan Logic and Sanoma Falls, very beautiful!! Love Wispy Rays and Royal Renaissance (difficult word to spell :)) too! That watermark (is it watermark?) on Unfolding Paradox looks like rays from the throat.

Thanks, everyone.

For those interested in Berma Abercrombie, she's been blooming already for about a week and would you believe I didn't even notice the buds until I looked at the photo? It's just one of those flowers I take for granted, and I shouldn't -- most cultivars don't get that kind of bud count here.

Mantis, Mediterranean Sailor is a nice, large bloom that gets a fair amount of shade here, but I think it helps the color. While I like the look of Royal Renaissance, the performance hasn't been anything to brag about. It's in an area of the garden I don't pay much attention to, so I've just left it alone.

Nat, I do like the pattern on Unfolding Paradox. It's an unusal shade of violet/purple that blooms a little later here, so it's appreciated.

Vulcan Logic would make Spock proud and it's my favorite of the group. I also especially like the color on Autumn Memories. Truthfully they are all very pretty....Maryl

Chris they are beautiful and I especially like Road to Sumarkand and Vulcan Logic.

I thought for a minute I was losing it since I had answered your Saturday post, but it just my usual weekend work amnesia.

Thanks, Maryl and Kay -- I should have Spock's Ears planted right next to Vulcan Logic, but I don't grow that one (yet).

Another great set of pics Chris.
Does BERMA ABERCROMBIE bloom low to the foliage?
VULCAN LOGIC sure has a rainbow of color. Love that one.

Julia

Great pics for sure!! Love Med. Sailor. that is an awesome picture. Vulcan Logic has been on the everchanging list. That bud count on Berma Abercombie is beyond belief.

Thanks, Julia and Cindy. I'm sure I'll be posting another pic of Vulcan Logic, since it just started blooming.

Julia, Berma Abercrombie isn't particularly tall, but it doesn't bloom in the foliage. It's a good front-of-the-border plant here.

Gorgeous blooms today,and my favorite one is SANOMA FALLS.

I just love Vulcan Logic and as always, Wispy Rays is a favorite...very pretty...Ellie
