We have been incredibly busy so I haven't had much time to take pictures. It's also miserably hot now and if we don't get out early, we don't spend much time out. The lates have started blooming so we need to make a sweep of the garden every day to select the best of those for possible registration.

Here is one of the lates we liked today. It is Sonoran Desert Rose X Red-headed Dragon Muffin. It's a rather large flower on a tall scape. We didn't count the buds. The aisles in the seedling bed are so narrow because the plants are so large, I couldn't get to this flower so Bob picked it for me.

Best for Last never increases much. The scape is taller than normal this year.

Heavenly Be My Valentine is registered as late, but it has been blooming for a while.

New Covenant is one that has been overlooked in a weedy bed. It probably won't stay in the garden.

Grape Stomping was planted last season and has just begun blooming.

Pineapple Bites is another one whose scape is taller than normal this season.

We like this diploid seedling. It is Little Donny Darko X Night Dreams. I think we will register it.

That's all for me. I hope everyone has a good Fourth of July.
