I like both colors. The Clarke's Heavenly blue was early
flowering and that lovely light blue.
Glenda, was your seed passed down to you or from your own purchase?
Burpees used to sell a heirloom Clark's Early Heavenly Blue.
The last time I saw a pkt I snatched it up. Just never got around
to starting any seeds. Would love to try for my own Summer Skies

Jackie,

If you still have that packet of heirloom Clarke’s Early Heavenly Blue, you can probably get some of the seeds to sprout. Wedding Bells was brought back from the brink of extinction using seeds that were over thirty years old. I once grew Heavenly Blue using seeds from a ten year old packet.

I'm sure you're right Philip. I wish I could have tried this summer,
just too many irons in the fire. I will try this coming summer

This is one of my favorites and I am building trellises now to grow many more next year.
the lighter of the two looks a little more "heavenly" to me but I'll be more than happy with either.
Nice blooms Glenda and RS.

Jon
