David, I agree with you about Get Jiggy. I have had it in two locations in my garden for several years and have yet to see any pattern variation on a bloom. It does not multiply well for me and, while pretty, looks like many others in my garden. Hot Seat is another that has not multiplied well but does throw some distinctive blooms. Love all your Bennetts. Kate

Julia, I can tell you that in this deep south garden the blooms also do not like to open well if it is less than very high 60s. I am so glad Clown Parade is doing well. It will sometimes lighten her when it has bloomed a while. Your clumps are beautiful. I really like the colors of Maui Sunrise. Do you think moving retarded some of the blooming in Concrete Blond? I have noticed it retards them, sometimes completely stopping them fora year here, but they then pick up and do so well. Of course, I love Rambunctious Rosie and think of you every year when it blooms. Carnival in Mexico looks very good, and Dearest Valentine is a beauty; I got mine from DEbra, but that weird twist that happens here sometimes, it appears a lovely bicolor. I really like the darker color on yours. I hope you get come rain. I am watering here and will be a good part of the day. NO rain in sight either. kay

I finally got a picture of Samsational that shows its color accurately. It is one bright flower. I imagine it would be 'all the rage' if it were widely available in the U. S. Bob wanted Sun Giant because we saw it in Trimmer's garden in Florida. It was 4 feet tall with very large flowers. The flowers are large here too, but it obviously doesn't like our climate much. Tech Colors has finally bloomed for us. This plant started out the year very puny but seems to be making a comeback. The first Tech Colors we had turned out to be something else. Finally we have the right one. The Dentist did so well last year and then this year started out puny also. It seems to be doing better. This is it's normal time to start blooming We didn't have time to take pictures of many seedlings, but we did take a few. Here is the seedling Queen for today. It is Susan Ruoff X Carrots Forever. As you might imagine, Bob loves this one. I might have shown this one before, but it makes me happy so I'll show it again. It is Sonoran Desert Rose X Crimson Stories. Houzz just told me my post was too long so I deleted a couple of pictures. I'll put them on later. Nancy

We all know by now how I feel about Mary's Baby. Sometimes mine is that deep velvet purple, sometimes deep velvet maroon, but always beautiful.....I think all of these are gorgeous Sherry. Starman's Quest has interested me in the past, but I got the impression it's not a good performer. Obviously it is for you. I like the color and the pattern......I do like Socco Gap. Nice form...........And what a great shot of ZuZu's Treasure. Lovely lavender/pink color.........I could go on, but let's just say I like them all for one reason or another..................Maryl
