A few open today, I missed one because of the sunlight but will try to get a picture when the sun goes over and post it later
New one for me and is one of mt TOP Favorites now ... Blueberry Dream
Aunt Ethel X John Benoot looked Great today! ( It's actually a little darker purple then the photo shows)
Sorry, Forgot the name on this one ...Huge Blooms!
Had to catch him on the way by ....
Very nice Cindy and Iris. Great shot of the hummer. Cindy the beds look nice and loaded. LRB is a nice one.
Iris love that seedling.
Iris, Thanks! Nice Blooms! I see why Blueberry Dream is a top favorite. It sure is pretty. I love your seedling! Great shot of the hummer! I can never catch mine with my camera it seems.
I agree, love the shot of the hummer. Did everyone hear about the new craze in Europe?? It seems they are putting songbirds on the menu in restaurants. I think that is just horrible. My sister saw an article in National Geographic about it.
No, I had not heard of that! That is most horrible. I love birds!
I have a few new ones today plus all the rest that are blooming!
RADIANTLY RICH
HANDSOME ROSS CARTER
ED BROWN
BRAVE WORLD

Very Nice Linda and Don.
Cindy I haven't heard about the songbird either.
Those Velvet Eyes are just staring at me. LOL!
Linda, Nice blooms! I like Radiantly Rich! Very nice double! I agree Asheville Bele Chere is really pretty.
Gingerjar, Nice blooms! Not a bad one in the bunch. Your right Mike Velvet eyes does stare at you.
Thanks All! Taylorlady, Sometimes I get decent pictures of the hummers, Sometimes not, I usually try to catch them when there by the feeders.
Hemlady, It's getting ridiculous out there now when they want to start putting songbirds on the menu!!! There finding Dirt Cheap ways to make meals and all it takes is for a few people ( Advertisement for the restaurant people) to say " Oh it's a great Delicasey" and Boom , It takes off! ~And then whats the cost to catch a sonbird and start cooking them???? ... Sad, Sad world it's getting to be!! Hope I don't see it on a site anywhere, I'd probably start a petition against it!!
Nice pix l2le and gingerjar! Love that ED BROWN and Velvet Eyes!!
Here;s the pic I didn't get yesterday .. Aztec Plaza .. Got it as a bonus and happy with it, It's big and Bright!
Another new one for me Jamcain me cracy FFO
Wilson Spider And Siloam Irving Hepner
Tons Of Bumblers on my Phlox! ..Heres a close up..
Another pic of the Hummer ( Sorry, Can't resist when I see them)
Nice picture of the hummer and the bee as well. Here's Matt with a visitor. Sorry I couldn't get the dead bloom off without chasing the butterfly away.
Nice to see some hummers. We haven't had any this year and only an oriole once in awhile.
Iris, Great Blooms! Thanks! I stopped hanging hummer feeders at the end of June. They prefer my garden to the feeders. I'll hang them back up mid August. You can post all the hummer pictures you want. I love hummers and all birds really. Great close up of the bumble bee.
Gingerjar, Great Swallowtail pic.
