Agree with others, Tequila and Lime is really nice! Another that caught my eye was the lovely image of Blossom Queen.
Yesterday was a wash out with some much needed rain and thunderstorms that just kept on coming, one right after the other. Today the humidity was awful, still managed to get a few images of blooms this morning....

Bark at Me, a little wet from the last of the early morning showers.


Sunset Mesa, a late bloomer with pretty colors.


and Up on the Roof, another late bloomer similar in color to Sunset Mesa but a lot taller.

OK, so I'm giving up. I'm surrounded by blooms and don't remember what I have posted. So, here goes with apologies for repeats;

August blooms - If it doesn't freeze I will have October blooms for sure.

Octarine on it's first season here, still going. The color is a more of a vibrant saturated medium neutral purple in person. My camera makes it seem more red, and the throat is actually chartreuse, not yellow.
I'm really loving it's hue though. I think it lived up to the breeders description. I live in Washington though, zone 8, with very clay soil and all my purples seem to have nice coloring. I wonder if they wouldn't look as nice in warmer regions.
