WOEBEGONE GIRL on rebloom.

Over in the garden section were I have my Olallie later bloomers planted there are lots of scapes and buds.

PURIFY MY HEART had some flowers on a rebloom scape.

The MARGO REED INDEED wannabe just keeps on blooming.

I have had this no ID forever. It blooms late every year.

PURIFY MY HEART is so pretty! I recently planted mine in the new cirle bed that gets full sun all through the fall. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'll get a late scape. Looking at the MRI wannabe makes me feel cooler this afternoon. It's wretchedly hot and humid here today.

Great to see your gettng new scapes and buds.
We are just starting to wind down here.
Humidity here was unbearable until the storms rolled through so the plants got their watering already and the humidity has lowered itself to a bearable level. No chance to plant today, perhaps tomorrow.
Still pulling my list of hybridizers to check out for lates. I was really good at our club plant sale yesterday and didn't buy anything since most of them were early or midseason. Need to save my $$'s for the lates.

Edie Your squash are gorgeous! And while anything can happen, your melon looks like it's on its way! Green beans looking good, too. Spray your cukes with Ortho Garden Disease Control religiously (unless you are totally organic) to prevent the further spread of funguses. And I'd be very disappointed about that cabbage -- when they're pest-free, cabbages are beautiful! Is there any way you can mulch that bare earth? It looks weed-vulnerable to me!

Jean: I know about hot and humid weather and we are suppose to get back to those dreadful temps/humidity later this week. For now, I'll enjoy the cooler and windy weather we are having now. Easier to get gardening work done. mantis: Glad it helps you. I don't mean to downplay a hybridizers creation but if it doesn't show improvement in 2 years, it has to go where it can flourish better. Even with this seasons up and downs (it could happen again), it's another way to see which cultivar is able to stand the test of our weather patterns. Julia

Maryl, the color IS perfect, and I love the flat bloom. I think I've had it three years, and it's grown from two to three fans. The bud count is nothing great (approx. six buds per scape). Originally, I had it mixed up with Michigan Magic (another Carpenter intro), which is a poor performer here. I'm guessing the climate would have a lot to do with the performance. These are Texas-bred flowers that should love your area. I do have a few Carpenters that do well but, for the most part, I think I'll need to avoid them in the future. I just took at look at Land of Our Fathers (another Carpenter), and it went from a double fan to a single spindly fan in two years -- and no blooms at all.

Hey Mingo! No fair... why did you get to stand next to the Sugar sign! lol Now I see how the pretzel holder/coosie works! I thought it was kind of weird that the pretty blue ribbon was next to the outside of the cup. You gotta give me a picture with your creations next time! This brain doesn't always work 100%. haha.. Joann, why don't you use the picture of all 3 of us (if the others approve)?

Purify My Heart is so pretty, and so is Woebegone Girl.

It is hot here too, although the temps are a little lower than last week, the humidity is higher so it feels hotter. Hoping for a shower today, but so far none, they are dancing all around us.

I remember that last year in August I still had a bloom here or there because my new Emmerich intros were blooming out of sync for the area. This year those from last year are on the correct schedule and I am not getting that much in bloom from the new Emmerich intros I put in this spring.

But I do have all these late bloomers that I didn't have last year and that is what is saving the show around here.

That late blooming no ID of mine is one that I have been posting for the past two years and every year people really like it. I love it because it is and was a late bloomer when I used to not even have anything late.

Natayna- Go to the Olallie Website and click on the late blooming section. Choose anything listed that they say blooms in September. It will start in August here. I will do a new post about my Olallie Late Bloomers, just take afew minutes.
