Dwindling Numbers

Still quite a few, but hard to find a positive title on this brutally hot day. People with chronic conditions suffer exacerbated symptoms.

Here are some on my screen.

Contributing Editor


Kingdom Bound


Sword of Justice is new.


Rogue Wave has performed well this year.


Crystal Castles


One for Steve


Katherine Marin sometimes has extra petals, but is nicer this way.


Bridge of Sighs. Low bud count of many Hansens.


Mister Mayor has performed well.


White Eyes Pink Dragon. Nice clump, but the lighting never cooperated.


Also Known As is a wonderful near white from Derrow. Not a fast increaser, but long bloomer.


Every Knee Shall Bow wouldn't bloom on a nice overcast day this year.


Trance


Be Here Now. Nice mellow yellow

    Lots of pinks and purples, so I really like this post. Gorgeous clump of White Eyes Pink Dragon. I like the rich color of Rogue Wave.

    I really like Everything you posted today, maybe Also Known As a little bit more because it's white ))

    Yo u still have some very nice ones even in this heat, Sword of Justice and Kingdom Bound are really pretty. Kingdom Bound has a lovely color. In fact, all of them are pretty and that is a stupendous group of White Eyes Pink Dragon if it isn't at its best.

    Contributing Editor is interesting. Can't quite make out what color it is exactly. Grayed Lavender? Hope to see more of it..............Katherine Marin always looks good in your garden. It tempts me (were it not for our heat)...........AKA has such pretty ruffles. Nice one........Maryl

    Loads of pretty lavenders in this post! I see you got Sword of Justice even though Karol tried to talk you out of it. What do you think of the color? Yours seems to have even more blue tones than mine. Trance is looking good. Does yours bloom midseason, as registered, or late like mine? One For Steve has fantastic colors. I tried to get Curt to send me that one as a bonus a couple of times, but he never did. That one must be a good seller for him. How does it perform for you? That's a beautiful clump of White Eyes Pink Dragon!

    Sword of Justice has a lot of going on. Crystal Castles is probably my favorite of the bunch, great color and form. Contributing Editor is interesting for its patterns.

    Sword of Justice is a small plant in the garden (first year). I am pleased with the color, but too early to evaluate. Yes, Karol was worried I wouldn't like it. Trance is late, blooming now. One for Steve blooms just above the foliage. Is taller this year than last. It grows well. Was disappointing in previous years, but very nice this year. I'm sure the name alone makes it a good seller.


    Contributing Editor is indeed sort of a greyed lavender, but quite clear in the garden. Katherine Marin is too quirky in its blooms.

    I'm glad you like the color of Sword of Justice. Mine didn't do much this year, although it had been excellent the previous two.

    How did I not say how nice Rogue Wave is when I commented above? So pretty. I just had to come back to this post and bookmark it to find it and Crystal Castles again.

    As you all know, I am not a fan of lavender, but you have some beauties shown here. I especially like Contributing Editor, Kingdom Bound, and Sword of Justice.
