Nice, Kyla! Smiling I love that--sparklegroup. Sometimes I think most of my blooms are like this--sigh. Hilarious! Still having trouble getting my new cell phone camera to work--I can't figure out how to change any settings on it or be able to focus it on what I want to focus it on.

Viola are great--mine have bloomed pretty continuously since March in a part sun spot. Right now they're not doing much, but I think as the weather cools, they'll pop out again more. I really love viola! Smiling

Ha that's quite a visitor! Smiling Here's one I found yesterday:

1) Caryopteris Sterling Silver--didn't bloom for me last year, so this is the first time I've gotten to see the blooms!
2) Phlox Paparazzi Blue enjoying a rebloom--can't get the camera to capture the lavender color, though
