Late Bloomers

sturgeonguy
15 years ago

Here's three varities that have just bloomed, leaving me with 10 others who still haven't. I'm also throwing in a couple of new shots of some that bloomed a while ago, because these latest blooms are really perfect (I think.)

Enjoy.

{{gwi:658500}}
Firepot - MWL: 3" diameter flower on a 24" bush.

{{gwi:658501}}
Gitts Perfection - AID: 10" diameter flower on a 36" bush.

{{gwi:658502}}
Lavender Ruffles - AAID: 12" diameter flower on a 36" bush.

...and now for a couple of really nice blooms...

{{gwi:658504}}
Snowbound - AID: 9" diameter flower on a 48" bush.

{{gwi:658506}}
Kids Stuff - BBST: 4" diameter flower on 48" bush.

Cheers,

Russ
