Lost this post three times yesterday so just gave up. I will attempt to edit so as Mantis says, wait for the ”Done”!

Flight of Orchids was good on first bloom and contunes to look good on rebloom

Merlot on My Mind had very short first blooms but rebloom has been on normal height scapes

Isabelle Rose on second rebloom. It will probably rebloom again.

Willa Mae Thornton-hard to tell from the photo but these are huge 7-8 inch blooms. I love this flower. It is very large, has good form and just enough ruffles to be pretty without hanging up.

Butter Cream on first rebloom. Another huge bloom.

Purple Dwarf lives up to its name in height. This is another very large bloom

Heartbeat of Heaven looks better on rebloom. It gets partial shade in the morning so color is deeper

Like a Gee Six-on third rebloom. This is the first time in the years I have had it that it has been more cream and less pink. I am still not a fan. I sent some to Celeste who has had much better looking blooms.

Thundering Voice

The Tribble With Blue

Mister Butters is reblooming

This is not rebloom but a new one from this spring: You Are Mine

Outside plants are not the only plants out of sync this season. None of my indoor amaryllis bloomed in winter as they usually so. They all decided to bloom this week!

Done!!

In general, how do you like Merlot on My Mind? Flight of Orchids has nice clear blooms. A lot of stuff here is getting splotchy in the humidity. Isabelle Rose is such an impressive plant. As is Mister Butters, though I don't get rebloom.

Merlot on My Mind is a pretty one. Always love seeing Isabelle Rose. Very nice clump of Flight of Orchids. Like a Gee Six is pretty. anything that reblooms three times earns its keep, surely.

Houzz can be apain simetimes and others it does great. Your reblooms are lovely.

I like Flight of Orchids (ours got smashed, but is coming back), and Merlot on My Mind. I have heard so many good things about Isabelle Rose.

Mantis, this is the second full year for Merlot on My Mind. Last year it was great and had good bud count and rebloom. This year first scapes were short and bud count low. Rebloom is occurring on two scapes. There are very few I would actually rate this weird year but I teally like this one.

Kay, Flight of Orchids is pretty and has been a good bloomer. Like a Gee Six is usually very ugly and splotchy. I have never liked the form or habits. Celeste’s blooms were not splotchy.

Nancy, I hope your Flight of Orchids survives. It is such a pretty one. Isabelle Rose has been great in my garden. It always throws lots of prolifs and I have 3 rooting now.

You have a lot of pretty ones reblooming! I think my favorites are Flight of Orchids and The Tribble With Blue. My Tribble is usually recurrent, but no rebloom scapes in sight yet.

You know my two favorites are the yellows, Mister Butters, and Butter Cream. Butter Cream is the name of a much loved miniflora rose that is most appealing also. A delicate soft yellow just like the daylily............Maryl

Flight of Orchids and Butter Cream are my favorites. I hate to say this but my eyes are a bit tired of seeing the fancy blooms. I am enjoying the simplicity of the blooms like Butter Cream.

And there is my new appreciation of the yellows.

Three times! How frustrating. But a beautiful post. I especially like Isabelle rose, Mister Butters and Willa Mae. Your Heartbeat of Heaven looks so nice! Mine wasn't bleached this year but not as dark. How interesting about Amaryllis, Christmas in July

Yes houzz is a pain sometimes.

I love Heartbeat of Heaven.

Your amaryllis are very pretty! Purple Dwarf is a nice dark.
