In looking through photos from the last four years, I've searched for ones that were slightly different from the the uniform, standard blossom. To my mind and eye, each of these has a slight difference, worth looking at, so I'd like to share them. Since there are already 51 photos in the Database, I haven't entered any of these.

In my new location of full sun all day long, I've noticed that sometimes Fooled Me shows signs of bleaching at the end of the day of relentless heat and sun. By about seven o'clock in the evening , here are some examples of what the intense sun does. Because of the substantial thickness of the petals, they don't disintegrate, but they do show fading.
