    I took lots of photos, went out every morning camera in hand, but I thought I would post them after most of my plants have stopped blooming...just so I can remember how pretty it used to be out there.

    I like them all.... but really like the colors of your Canna. And you Chocolate Morning Glory is so different and pretty. :stew2:
    My Coneflowers haven't even bloomed yet. I've been waiting and waiting. And bought some that was already blooming the other day. Maybe they'll inspire the others to hurry up and bloom.

    I liked the Tigridia. Does anyone grow these in zone 6? I wonder if I could get zone 7 next to the south facing foundation? I need a long term temperature sensor. Or just bury a bulb and go for broke. Something like running across the street blindfolded. :rolleyes:
