Beautiful Flying Saucers Helena. Is one of your orange blooms a Crocosmia sp?
.

Gautier, MS

Thanks Jackie and Linda .
Yes that is the crocosmia blooms. I had bunch of branches and small trees cut on that side of yard so they get more sun. I have lot more blooms this year. I started pulling so.e out b/c they spread but weren't blooming untill this year, being invasive .
Only 2 blooms this morning from purpureas but calliandra had another flush of blooms.

Beautiful blooms Helena.
Thanks for sharing.

Jacksonville, AR(Zone 7b)

Lovely purps Helena and your Calliandra's are thriving.
I didn;t realize the Crocosmias are invasive. but when you think about it, Iris's are too, mine spread everywhere. So do the ditch lily;s.

the only mg I have blooming is the Blue Lavender Beauty
Waiting on my spec mg to make more blooms like this one.

Only blue blooms this morning. The unknown blue now looks to be Blue LYK,
Becky's hybrid. The other is my Blue Lavender Beauty. That one is a great bloomer, opening blooms every day
I noticed something visible in one of my pics, that is a set of 3 buds, like a Purp makes, but no purp leaves anywhere. Very strange Pic # 3 the buds are visible in the lower left corner of the bloom, 3 of them side by side.
Calliandra making a few more blooms

Sorry to hear that Jackie. They are all beautiful.

Gautier, MS

Love all your blooms Jackie. They are all beautiful! Those 3 buds resemble what indica does, any chance of crossing?
I tried to post yesterday and lost it when I sent it, gave up on reposting.

Gorgeous blooms Jackie. Love all of them. It does look like it's your Ao with the blzd. So pretty. We are getting rain today.

Good morning everyone.
I love all your beautiful blooms and butterflies.

Jacksonville, AR(Zone 7b)

Thanks Linda,
Helena, the Swallowtail is a lovely butterfly with the pretty blue on her wings.
Today I just have Kosmic Kell blooms and my cross from Aog and Mauve Splash

Thanks Jackie and Linda.
These butterflies are going to keep me busy forever cuz they keep coming back and laying more eggs. But I don't have any monarchs yet on my milkweeds.
Jackie, your blooms are gorgeous. I do wish cosmic Kelli had the blue color instead of lilac purple. I have not succeeded in getting from my seeds from 2013 of the blue star ( like cosmic Kelli to germinate or grow. Lost a lot of seedlings b/c of the rain.
This bloom did not want to open.

Thanks Helena. Your Blue Star/FS is still a beauty even if it did not want to open.
So hot here, it's keeping me busy just trying to water my mg's.
Helena, I don't know what to make of Kosmic Kell, this morning she looks blue with
purple star. Might be the purple is so dark, it makes the blue look like purple, like the purple is bleeding into the blue. Sometimes later in the day, she looks even more blue
A huge Blue Silk this morning maybe 5 inches across.
Look at Kosmic Kell's size in comparison.
Aogakiyama made a very lite bloom today

1 and 2 Debs lovely pink has got to be Xiongs Chinese,.
3 Just not sure of this id, tangled vines and tags swapped, smh
Kosmic Kell had about 5 or 6 blooms open today.

Edited to say # 3 looks like the one I simply call Blue/Purple, now I have it marked wrong as Blue LYK and it doesn't look anything like Blue LYK

Beautiful blooms today Jackie. I have never tried to grow gingers. They are so pretty.
Damaged or not, the blue silk is still a beautiful color. I love the next one too, darker blue with pink throat.
