I'd enjoy seeing which ones you think are good bloomers, too, Arlene. Plants from similar UDSA zones is one of the ways that we can try out varieties that may best match our own climate needs. We may still differ between gardens, and weather may vary year to year, but it is understood that "our mileage may vary" when it comes to mentioning them or trying those that have done well for others. If you have some that are persevering even through a difficult growing season for you - even more interesting.
