The pickings are getting slimmer and slimmer but here are a few that were blooming in the garden today. Too many empty scapes to look at

WHAT A DAY FOR A DAYDREAM


FLIRTING WITH DISASTER


MARIETTA TREASURE CHEST


SURPRISE ENCOUNTER


SWAMP DUST - Really love this one, it's big and opens flat and has great substance!


GREYWOODS FRUITE DE LOOPS - lots of ruffles!


MAVIS GWENDOLYN CARTER - beautiful but it can lean


JT DAVIS


VANILLA GORILLA - last bloom

very nice

You are getting a lot of ruffles up there in NH. I am in love with Vanilla Gorilla,
also Boundless Beauty, Swamp Dust, Flirting with Disaster, and the Fruite de
Loops. But the Vanilla Gorilla is my absolute favorite, especially after seeing
it in a clump. Simply gorgeous clump.

Very nice!!!

I love Vanilla Gorilla!!

I do too and I almost ordered that one this spring and then didn't because of the price.

I'm putting it on my Wish List for next year

Vanilla Gorilla is on the auction right now. I am out of room or I would bid on it. Hey, if you win it, do I get a finder's fee?

I noticed it yesterday...BUT, 49.00 is alot for me One day

NEW PARADIGM


SHEZA HEARTBREAKER X DOVE IN FLIGHT


BLUEGRASS MUSIC


The newest kid in town - Maverick

Maverick!!

Maverick gets my vote for photo of the day. That's one happy dog!!! Beautiful in all his glory.

Nice flowers JW. Good to see garden pics of some of the catalog ones. They sure look different from catalog pics but still beautiful.

Great photos.
ALDERSGATE Temple 2005

Good morning to all from sunny New Hampshire where it's going to be hot and very humid today. I'm happy to see some other August blooming flowers but agree that Maverick is probably the best find He looks like a very happy boy!

Fred, I love your side photo of ALDERSGATE, I'm not so big on spiders but I do love those curls

Below are some pics of what was blooming in the garden yesterday.........deadheading is getting way too easy.

WATERMELON MOON


REGENCY HEIGHTS - a favorite


HUMBLE CRY


FLYING TRAPEZE


SUSAN WEBBER


KATHERINE MARIN - quite the flower!


WATERFALL RAINBOW


HORNS


FE FI FOE FUM


FAME looking somewhat washed out


AMETHYST STARDUST

I agree with everyone that Maverick is a beauty and a very lucky dog. Karin, I really like Regency Heights - the soft colors and the form. Is it a dip or tet?

I have a very few blooming this morning.

Orange Blossom Trail with some cosmos and zinnias.



Parrots of the Caribbean



Icicles is washed out in the heat but the heat brings out the teeth and tentacles.




Cave Creek Canyon




Blue Eclipse - a bonus from Pete Harry this spring. It is a little washed out, but this one has continued to bloom since mid May.




This is one of my favorite reseeding annuals - nicotiana sylvestris. I really enjoy white in the garden plus I like the cascading blooms.

Hi Ann,
REGENCY HEIGHTS is a diploid. I love the soft coloring also and this plant has great substance. It's by Hazel Dougherty who did some other great diploids like AUTUMN WOOD, INDIAN RIPPLE and STOLEN TREASURE

I love your ORANGE BLOSSOM TRAIL and will have to think about adding that one to my garden sometime if it's hardy up here in NH. Great color combo you have there

Nice photos everyone. There were only a couple blooming here today, it's TOO HOT!!

JWWC, your photo of New Paradigm is incorrect, maybe you just got the wrong name on it.

Dot

Very nice flower pics today!!!

Ann, I sure would like to get Orange Blossom Trail but in the spring. Do you think you will have enough of it to list next year???
