OUR FRIEND OLIN is an early bloomer. Has a bit more of a salmon tone to start the season. This photo was taken before 7 a.m. and before the steady rains started. I love this big flat flower.

I guess the word love fits us all. This form says Maryl all over it. I LOVE the big faces. Makes such an individual impact in the border with other plants. Glad to see Olin again..........Maryl

Sherry,

I am about a week early. The 4-5 day period of temps in the upper 80s and low 90s appears to have sped things up.

I see that this is a Carpenter. Alas, more above average temps on the horizon.
