A few more blooms have opened in the past couple days. 1) Bonaventure. One of my all-time favorites. Seems more orange/bronze this year. 2) Caballero. 3) Gran Prix. I still think this is Seattle, especially if it doesn't get bigger than the 5" it is now. 4) Pablo. 5) Roque Starburst. A favorite of the Japanese Beetles. Arlene, didn't you mention something about JB's and lighter colored flowers? lol
