June blooms have started.....

EDIT - NOT Egyptian Spice-- Instead it's Aztec Beauty - still a stellar FFE even if my mind has wandered off! Thanks, @Seedfork!

Only one FFO in my quick tour this morning, might find more when I can get back in the garden (I hope).
So glad to see this one bloom again and with such a nice large beautiful first bloom. This was a great performer for a couple of years after planting, then I think I must have upset it with a move plus dividing it. It has taken years to be looking this good and healthy again.

NOIDs

Gift from Edith Sligger,
Thumb of 2018-06-03/GaNinFl/a0cb0f Thumb of 2018-06-03/GaNinFl/1b1e92

Several possibilities, this one got mixed up when dividding and replanting.
It is supposed to be Thin Man but it looks a lot like, American Revolution.
For now, NOID

Sounds about right Ginny!
My mother says, "I don't care if you've shown them to me before, I want to see them again" Hilarious!

Hers are kicking into high gear and she shares with me regardless.
