Smoke- in theory it was just "haze" and made for lovely sunset and sunrises where everything has been a neon pink. But no where near what you all on the east coast have been dealing with. We have had the "haze" for the last few years with both the fires in the western US and Canada. Every so often you do get a whiff but not too often.
Yes the dark one - no I don't have any Bishops of Landoff all of these seeds in my garden were all from doubles. I can't speak of who the bees brought in, as these are all bee pollinated so I'm sure they could have visited somewhere else before my house.
I look forward to seeing what they'll do!
