Mark,
I certainly hope you didn't mean for this reply to be taken the way i took it .. No call for a remark like this to someone asking a ?

JoJoe,
As for as your ? goes, I don't think i would worry about many blooms now. and go ahead and give your plants some fertilizer. you will probably get a few more blooms now thru spring.. I had a small 1 that bloomed the end of may/1st week of June this past summer. Some just take longer to develop than others.Your yellow 1 looks to be Gold Charm. Not 100% sure without seeing the stamen & anthers color tho. I try to ID mine but if i see 1 i really like,the name doesn't mean anything..LOL
You have some really nice colors there
cliff
SMILE AND HAVE A GREAT DAY
