You still have a lot going on! Rainbow Maker is a pretty one, and Sweet Isabella too caught my eye. Of course, there are the usual suspects, but I always mention them so won't today. Such nice clumps. I have seen reblooms on a very few. Fern stone had almost finished when it started putting up a scape. It won't bloom til things start to slow down. Rock Solid has a couple, usually has a lot in instant rebloom, but not this year. I don't really think I have reached peak yet. A couple of earlies have finished blooming, but I have at least a dozen yet to bloom.

Thank you, Nancy. this weather has me taking photos before the blooms are at their best...with the petals curling and so forth. Tomorrow I will post Crazy Cat Lady which has improved enormously.

Fernstone rebloomed only one time for me, but the re-blooms are now in earnest.

A new garden cat has attached himself to me, and it is going to make life much harder when taking photos. He is a sweet thing, but I am concerned that he is skinny, and may be sick. We will take him to the vet and get him checked out this week.

Looking forward to your photos.

Everything is looking great! My favorite photo is the one with Spoken in Parables and F. Garrett Mason. I'm seeing quite a few instant rebloom scapes that are getting ready to start here - some on plants that haven't rebloomed before. I'm getting tired of the storms, but I guess there are going to be quite a few more this week.

Debra

Thank you. Agree about the storms. I really should have taken photos a little later, but didn't want to risk rain, Debra. I am getting ready to begin my regular garden reorganization. Some I have had a long time are leaving...If the bud count isn't enough it is gone. South seas blooms great, but opens so late it is leaving...and I have new ones waiting to take places of all who leave...as usual.

Season is definitely winding down but you have lots of pretties still going. Sarah Hawes is a pretty thing-like Island Time-and of course Laura Harwood. But they all look good. These storms are no fun and it is difficult to get good pictures. Good to see so many.

Kay - We never get done redoing our gardens, do we? I'm doing major downsizing this year to make room for seedlings, which have become my primary focus. I hope to be getting rid of about 80-100 plants.

Debra

What are your major rebloomers this year? I notice more instant rebloom. For example, on Wall of Fire.

Thanks you, Kate. I got out early, as I said...not the best photos but rain threatens and you always want to avoid it. Debra, you are so right...I am always changing around. I can't imagine getting rid of that many, but there are always some that need to go. Mantis, as usual, it appears that Spoken in Parables, Sweet Isabella, Marseilles Watercolor and Pink Gingham are the biggest rebloomers. I have never had any rebloom from Wall of Fire. Most of the Time Stealth Bomber and White Eyes Pink Dragon rebloom, but can't say yet.

Kay, I really like the color, form and pattern of Pink Tarantula. It is the big stand out for me of these.

Of course Jelly Roll Morton is always so pretty, [as is White Eyes Pink Dragon & Catastrophe W, which are actually not in this post.] After seeing yours, I'm looking forward to my Laura Harwood in its first season later on.

My Spoken in Parables has been a real disappointment in almost all ways: color, buds, scapes, and never a rebloom.

Brad

Brad, how long have you had Spoken in Parables? It is a wonderful plant here and always reblooms bountifully. But I lost the first one I had, and this is a replacement. Pink Tarantula has been a really fun plant as the blooms can look a bit different each time and the cascade increases for a while after the bloom begins. thie is the second year I have had it. Catastroph is through blooming unless she reblooms which sometimes but not always happens here.

kay

Great group Kay. You have so many scapes and buds yet to continue the show. Wow.

Kay, I've had Spoken in Parables for about 4 or 5 years. I moved it once, still no improvement. I;m guessing the climate is the issue.

Brad

It is supposed to be grown for northern climates, but thrives here in the deep south. That is a shame, because it a great one here, Brad. Julia, it has been such a fun year...I have never had one like this, so it has been fun, and it is still ongoin, but the stars are dropping out one by one as they should, I do have a few new ones with scapes, so that will be fun; they have an abundance of time to bloom here. Thank you for looking nad commenting.

kay

All are lovely! I love that Jelly Roll Morton, Sweet Isabella, and Entwined in the Vine.

Nancy

Island Time is a pretty lavender color and Pink Tarantula is interesting too. Sweet Isabella is another nice one............Maryl
