The season is coming to a close with the very last two varieties opening today. In two weeks the beardeds will be gone and shortly after the sibs. The Japanese are still to come tho, and Gerald Darby hasn't opened yet either. It's covered with buds and has never bloomed before, as its been potted for years.

I've hundreds and hundreds of photos I'm trying to get thru, so I'll have more to post eventually. So little time right now though. Here's the always gorgeous China Dragon. A 16 stalk clump is in full bloom right now.

Just breath taking!! Isn't it great to see them bloom this late? In years passed they were all done by Father's Day.
