Absolute Ripper looks good. Mine from Debra has not bloomed, was so late to come up I thought it was dead. Looks good now so hoping for some late bloom. Really like the face on Franorian Lamps, and Hillside Bright and Early looks just gives me a happy feeling.

Your season generally goes in stride with here, and Buckleberry Ferry has also started here.

Absolute Ripper looks great. Is Rudolph the Red-nosed Raindeer new? Bride of Dracula is such a good one; very long bloom this year.

Kay, Rudolph was new last season. We saw it in bloom at a friends' garden and I had to have it.

I always like the look of Feanorian Lamps. Bucklebury Ferry and Cherry Pie a la Mode are looking fine.

I like the pattern on Feanorian Lamps very much, but wonder what a Feanorian Lamp is.....Nordic Sunshine is another pattern I like. I can't see that delicate coloring holding up in our 97 degree heat (now), but it sure works for you........Buckleberry Ferry is a good one.............Maryl

Buckleberry Ferry looks great! Mine has scapes now. That's a pretty photo of Absolute Ripper. Mine got knocked back hard over the winter but seems to be recovering now.

Debra

Debra, our Absolute Ripper never looks good in the early spring but always seems to bounce back.
