Wow....beautiful plants....specially the yellow one....I love them very much....the yellow is so pretty. Marie

Bravo! I have just looked at your 3 posts from Friday and I love all of them. I am trying to catch up on everyone's posts but am so busy trying to get all my yard work done and still hurting from the dog bites, but when I take a break I come here to the forum. You have some very pretty blooms!! I won't even try to pick favorites out of all those I saw, there are just too many lovely ones. I know you are missing Ms. Blackie, though...and I still think of her too. My thoughts are with you, Jean. Celeste

CHANCE ENCOUNTER IS SO PRETT, and I love BEAUTIFUL EDGINGS. mine is almost 5 foot tall, too.I am always afraid the wind is going to break the scapes when it blows,as the scapes are just whipping back and forth in the wind, but, it hasn't broke none yet.So sad to see them come to the end,isn't it.I have one fixing to bloom,that I have never seen a flower on yet, but it only has 3 buds on it, so it wont last long, and a rebloomer fixing to rebloom and it has only 3 or 4 buds, so wont last long and maybe only a day. jean

The spent blooms in the photos don't distract me. You may have noticed my recent photos have them too for the same reason you stated. Jason Salter has a very different pattern, and I always love seeing Siloam David Kirchhoff. That's one of the few miniatures I've kept around. When I first saw that one years ago I thought of it as having a rainbow eye. Debra
