John your Compassion bush looks great. Nice bloom as well...is it cooling down yet?
Today's blooms...Black Dream is really black again, amazing black eye zone. COF making the comeback now that the spider mites are on the retreat.

Darren, the pictures of your garden in the newsletter are breathtaking.
Compassion at the end of a hot day. Of all the new varieties I purchased in the spring Compassion has proven to be the most heat tolerant.

Doll, I'm very glad to hear about your experience with Compassion in the extreme heat TX went through this summer. I like the growth habit in the greenhouse - very easy to grow and well shaped.

I missed the store update while we drove down to the Cincinnati Zoo. Well I guess we missed out this time but we did enjoy the visit, I was surprised to find some hibiscus (garden variety) growing on the zoo grounds.

John thank you for the nice compliment. I'm so glad that you and others can enjoy the amazing beauty that nature can produce. We all know how much hard work and dedication it takes...
By the way your Compassion bloom is so pretty, also loving Rainbow Sherbet.
This weekend's blooms...

Magnifique next to Cosmic Gold and in the second picture Hot Pepper High Voltage and Acapulco Gold. The third is of Pocahontas, this really is a magnificent bush, as the weather starts to get a little cooler the bloom will become much darker.

David your plants are looking totally awesome...really in great shape. Love seeing them and their blooms.... John your High Voltage twins look just like mine, awesome stuff!! I love how HV always has big, clean blooms with a lot of personality. And the plant grows really nicely as in full and even. Great blooms! A fun shot of Valentines Day and the west facing planter colors. Got to make Monday a good day no matter what happens....  Guess who decided to make a reappearance, Mr Vin Beaujolais and wow has this plant grown the last couple of months. It has pretty much tripled in size. The T Princess quads going strong on days 2 & 3 for the blooms Farmer D |
