Catching up again

2 years ago

I posted yesterday, but apparently didn't submit the post and ending up losing it.

The nights have finally been warm enough for the flowers to develop properly even though it is dry. Bob is running all the sprinklers all night until about 5 am and then he gets up and turns them off so the flowers aren't spoiled by the water. The weathermen predicted the possibility of thunderstorms last night, but, alas, they missed us.

This is the first flower we have seen on Tart with a Heart. I don't think it likes our garden. The plant is pretty small.

I have already posted a photo of Spacecoast Nails and Lipstick, but this flower looked so much better I had to post it again. I guess it needs the night heat to make it look good.

The rest of these are small flowered tets. This is Little Man Tait.

i really like Nordic Sunshine. It always has some sort of pattern.

Ruffled Nuggets

This is our daughter's seedling. It is Dental Delight X Happy Teeth. It may be an intro in 2025.

That's all for me.

I wondered if your daughter’s seedling would be an introduction. It is so striking! School Bus is a bright one. I like the colors on Nordic Sunshine.

I like Nordic Sunshine alot. I am guessing the pattern would stay true on each bloom. My Nordstrom with a pattern, Quasar Cutie, is true on every bloom.

Your daughters seedling looks great in every photo, hope she registers it.

It's very dry here too, and I have started watering seedlings and newer plants. I've already started to see some bud drop. My favorites of the registered are Nordic Sunshine and School Bus. Your daughter did a good job on the purple toothy seedling!

Your School Bus, with recurved segments and huge eye, looks different from the NGA photos. It will be interesting to see if Nails and Lipstick is a vigorous plant. What a lot of watering! I would have a water bill of several hundred. I think this coming week could turn a bad year into catastrophe.
