I have been so lucky this year with an abundance of buds! I have never seen so many! Here on the westcoast of Canada, we have had only 2 weeks of hot sunny weather this summer with an occasional sunny day thrown in otherwise. Not a lot of rain, but lots of cloudy days. June was rainy and about 60 degrees. I planted mid May and cut my first bouquet mid July. I will plant in early April next year. Here are a few pic's of the buds....
