heat and blooms

Our temperatures have gotten so warm so early, it's playing havoc with some of my blooms. I have a Double Queen that hasn't bloomed for a year or so, and I know the pot is marked correctly...this year instead of being red and white, it looks like an Exotica double. SIGH...so weird. My Ambience was really stressed last year and the blooms on the first scape looked like a totally different hybrid (the 2nd scape was fine). This year, due to the heat, the first blooms don't look anything like Ambience! All my pot tags are marked with a sun-proof (xylene-free) garden marker and are partially buried, so they don't fall out our get switched. I'm doubting the IDs, but the heat is really messing with the blooms!

Not looking for any answers, but just venting. Even though the greenhouse has a fan and open screen door, in the hot afternoon sun it has reached 120F!
