More rain today, but I was able to get photos a little easier except for stepping in the water pan DH has for all wildlife. Ah well, it was my garden shoes.

Still loving that clump of Clown Parade. Mint Octopus is pretty, and Stenciled Infusion is showing off. I can't wait til I get some blooms. I am sure Fern Stone will have had a couple of blooms by the time I get home Friday. A bud had color on it Sunday. I think I will be there to see 1st blooms on anything else.

I love that shot of Bullfrog Kisses with the petals rolled back! Clown Parade is really parading now, Gillian had a nice opening, and the Laurelwood seedling is a beauty! Lovely post all around. I hope the rain keeps coming for both of us this week!

All lovely pics. As you know, Clown Parade is a favorite for me and that clump shot is great. Catastrophe Waitress looks so vibrant. Can't wait to see if mine blooms this year. Keep telling yourself rain is good for the garden and weeds are easier to pull when the ground is wet. At least that is what I tell myself. At least we got a break today from the rain.

Rocks Cry Out has finally started showing 5 scapes here. Won't bloom for at least several weeks. Suppose to go to 90's next week.

Thank you all for looking and commenting. The rain is such a benefit and we really needed it so badly as the blooms show. I have always loved Clown Parade and it is such a great showoff. Julia I hope Catastrophe Waitress blooms for you too. I am so grateful to Chris for sending it to me when she moved. Kate, and Debra, that Laurelwood seedling is so pretty, I have to post it as it shows purple better here thaan just about anything. Nancy Stenciled Infusion never has a bloom I don't like. Thank you all for your comments, Kay

Another beautiful group of photos. That Ledgewoods seedling is really nice. I also like Stenciled Infusion and SC Francis Busby.
