It's been hard to get many photos--too much digging for orders and intermittent rain. We have only one more order to ship next week so we could be back to noraml if it weren't raining. It's been raining all afternoon--not hard, but just a moderate constant rain. We will need the moisture when the heat hits.

This is Chelle Belle's first flower open for the season. It is named for our daughter, Michelle. Chelle Belle was her nickname when she was little.

Cherry Pie a la Mode's eye color has been a little pale this season. It was much better today.

Edward Abbey's color is rich but I don't like the shape of the flower.

Extreme Tangerine was looking good today.

I think this is the first photo I have taken of Fringed Sweetheart.

Jeepers Creepers was showing a pattern today.

This is Joe Burrow's first flower of the season.

Maynard Max's color was better today.

I love the dark rich color of Stormy.

That's all for me.
