Took these pics, yesterday. didn't get a chance to post them before now.

I love how the sun and my crazy camera can really change the color of the bloom when the sun is brightly shining on it. Some of them could pass for being a totally different plant and bloom.

Enjoy.

cleome pink and dark pink. supposed to be 2-3 feet like last year, but the weather has been wreaking havoc on all my plants and their growth. These are bound and determined to bloom even though the are about 12 inches tall.
