I have Ada E Hill. I planted it early in the spring and it's got buds now but hasn't bloomed yet. I will get a picture of it when it does bloom and you can compare it to yours and see what you think. Jason

Confirmed, it was definitely powdery mildew disease. I tried the milk/water solution for a few days, but to no effect. I got impatient since the plants were dying more with each day... so I broke down and bought a fungicide, which cured the white spots and mold immediately, but the plants, sadly, are too sick to recover. They're stunted and wilted and the fruit tastes a little "spicy," a sign that they're also infected. Better luck next year poor tomatoes. Note, I'm sure that the water/milk cure works... I've read about it everywhere and many people have had positive results with it. I just wanted to do what would work the fastest and I figured a chemical treatment would be quicker than the natural remedy in this case. Thanks a ton for all of your responses! Great community here!

I would say it appears to be good match. Very different from the Carlina aucalis I have grown. I have been enjoying your posts .

Depends on the rest of your kitchen. That is very dramatic, and needs to be the star. Your other decor choices in your kitchen need to e quiet. If your kitchen also has busy floors, or you are planning a patterned backsplash, that granite won’t work. It also won’t work if you have an older kitchen and you are just replacing the counters. That granite is for a new current kitchen. If you decide to go with this granite, you must go to the templating layout at the fabricator’s, to see how it will be laid out, and where the sink cutout is. Do not skip that step, no matter what.
