The named varieties are catching up to the seedlings now. There are lots of new blooms in the garden today.

Arrowhead Falls was a bonus last year. I like the color, but there is no pattern today.

Artillery Fire is a huge bloom but I don't know that I like the shape. It's a very stiff flower and sometimes doesn't open.

Chitty Chitty Fang Fang has finally decided to grow and flower. I think this might be the first flower it's had in the 4 or 5 years it has been here.

Fire Bird Suite was really intense in color today.

I like the color and shape of Gryphon Chinese Fire.

Heavenly Green Canary is a nice big flower. I love the green in the throat.

This is Heavenly Mirage's first flower here. It is more rose than Rose F. Kennedy but the flower is smaller.

This is the first nice flower we have seen on Heavenly Start Your Engines. It's registered as a late but obviously isn't.

Here is our Old Time Memories.

Piece of the Action is a nice bitone.

Rosy Spiketail is looking very good this year.

More to come . . .
