Wow, those really are pretty! Love those orange highlights!
My sole survivor looks like it would really rather be somewhere else, tho. Heh, it's at the end of a raised bed and is leaning so far out from it that it looks like it's trying to escape. Hilarious! "Aaak! Those lupines are trying to eat me!" No photo, the whole scene is entirely too depressing.
Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.

Most of these plants are between 18-24" tall, but one in specific is almost 4' tall. It stands WAY above all the others. Kinda weird as it's not getting anything more special than the others.

As I was taking these pictures, another hummingbird moth decided to come by & say hi. The hummingbird moth is right smack in the center of the plant (hard to see)

Is 'Acapulco Salmon & Pink' always available to buy in Denver?

Wish we had it here. I'll have to look mail order.

Post those pics to the database! Beautiful gardens and great pics! Bet the Hummers love your yard! Thumbs up

Marilyn - at nurseries, yes, pretty common. I happened to have gotten these last year at a couple of Home Depots at the end of the season. Almost 100% of the "Bloomtastics" I bought this year, though, died, so I'm not impressed with that vendor of plants. If you want, I can check out a couple of nurseries on Saturday, pick some up, & send 'em to you if you want.

The rain here (been raining almost steadily for 4 days), so everything's soggy wet.
