The only vendor who still has it is Hugh Stout. The original introducer has retired )returned extra plants) so if you want it, send me a c-mail with your address. Postage is fine, SDBs are not heavy, after all.

I have rain, so time to catch up a bit. Lots of bud pictures now:

Viper Las Vegas

Acoma (this one is so pretty) Kid Gloves

My Rhododendron are starting (a week late for ATP Rhodos week!)


Have a pile up of Inner Space


My Skiddle Noid in full sun


And a whole herd of Ninja Turtles! With Cat's Eye in background.

Beautiful Leslie!

Thanks Marilyn. Been loving your shots of Superstition!

Turtle herd!

Celia - my mom used to use the term "we're off like a thundering herd of turtles" to describe when we were going about things slowly. Guess it just stuck with me!

I also had SDB Raindance Returns bloom:






And since it was always lurking in the background, I submitted this as a multi-plant shot of Raindance Returns and Cat's Eye:

Just lovely, Leslie!! Herd of turtles, indeed!!

Okay - one more batch and I am caught up!

One of my Bulgarian Honey Garlic is just popping open. I will be interested in seeing the full flower bell.


The day before yesterday Experiment opened:






And this one is for Bonnie @grannysgarden - Guise (I know - finally)






That is Blueberry Tart in the background.

I love the colors in Guise! Very pretty!

Guise is awesome!

Leslie, a roommate and I used that one for when we had to clean house. Off like a herd of turtles!

Haaa! You must have been real inspired to clean then! Not. Too funny.

We usually ended up going out or watching a movie.

I can so relate.

Guise is just splendid!!

Guise is a must have for a dwarf garden. Beautiful, Leslie. smiles

I have a bunch of new blooms that opened during the heavy rains. Silly guys should have waited!! Will post some shots tonight.

I am soooooo bummed. My Smoke and Thunder is not Smoke and Thunder. It is in fact purple. No idea which purple, but the buds should be open enough by this afternoon. And of course, being that it is a purple, it will be just soooooo easy to ID!

I think it may be a median, but I have medians, like Viper, that are growing taller than the tall bearded. This year is messed up, as are all the bloom times.

Sad about SaT. I like that one.

I really do too. I will have to call and ask for a replacement. Also see if they can tell me what was growing around Smoke and Thunder that may be my Noid purple.
