After failing to receive any of the forecasted Mon.-Wed. rain, we had what amounted to a short, light drizzle or mist early this morning. The soil is still bone dry. As I expected, I'll be watering this afternoon or tomorrow.

I have a lot of blooms opening every day but not many new varieties or ones that haven't been perforated by the JBs. The ones below are nothing to write home about. Better days are ahead!

1) Drummer Boy. This one is already 8"+.
2) Alpen Bill
3) Ferncliff Inspiration
4) Frost Nip?? Definitely not the white one it's supposed to be.
5) Hollyhill Six in One. All the blooms are mostly white this year instead of mostly yellow as in the past. Weather related?
