Re: Late bloom season

Now that is a blend I could enjoy!  I like them both.

Thanks Betty....
reblooms occasionally as does the attached sib.
Parentage is: (Connie Sue X Ghio seedling 983F) x Bride's Blush
I kind of like it but it's sib is (in my opinion) nicer.  am introducing it next year (attached). 
One of the wide crosses that paid off.  9 to 11 buds at 35", fragrant, like chocolate candy, very slight horns but absolutely now tweakiness and really thick substance.

been noticing that our bloom season has been getting latter and latter for the past 8 years or so.  we aren't under an urban heat island effect, don't know if that is leading to the latter springs and cooler winters.....anyway....these two flowers didn't start their bloom cycle until the first week of May and both are still going with more buds to open, peak bloom time used to be around April 15th, now it is around the 23rd of April.  The first will be introduced next year, not sure what to do with the second (rose colored amoena).
