Comments (13)Debra, Thank you. I absolutely love Lucky Streak, and would like a couple more in that vein. I realize my climate is probably closer to Luddy's than yours, but it doesn't seem as if Tennessee and Alabama would be so different. Cerulean Warbler was a fabulous bloomer again this year over a long period of time. I guess Sink Into Your Eyes, Ada Mae Musick and Drink the Light may be older ones, but they also preformed beautifully. My big rose now shades Leif and Liege which will have to be moved and it still managed to bloom from almost total shade. I have three of his on my list for next year including Hyacinth Macaw. I hate that they aren't doing well for you since your pictures are what inspired me to buy them. kay...See MoreSome pretty ones this morning....

So if you like the pic above, and have Paradigm, you already have it. But it's so nice you might want two anyway! Polar Moon is supposed to be a sport of August Moon. The other sports of August Moon are not that close looking to this (For example "September Sun"). I suspect there was a mixup in the trade somewhere some time. Has anyone else made this observation?

Could it be brown lasso? mines bread is half and half and looks a bit pale then it but it's close....See MoreFood for book club meetings (Me Talk Pretty One Day)
Comments (9)I'm still mulling it over but I know for certain I'll serve some nice red French wine. Perhaps some French bread with brie or camembert cheese and fruit. I'm trying to find some brown cookies that look like ... well, if you read the book, you know. LOL Since we are not required to serve dinner at our meetings, I will pass on doing an Easter dinner, I can't even muster up the energy to do that on Easter let alone on a work day where the meeting starts an hour after I get home. :-) Jodi-...See More
