FLAME, FEEDBACK, I DO, MATRIX, VIOLET RETURNS, DORCAS LIVES AGAIN and a few
others have actually bloomed.  We've had some just shoot up a bloom stalk
that dried up.  It's still too hot here.  Even though we've had lots of
rain, they need the cooler nights, which we have not experienced.  We've
had rebloom since the middle of July, but it was ugly.  We took some fairly
nice blooms to our SIIS meeting on 8/23....really sold the donated rzs of
the rebloomers.  HIS and HER ROYAL HIGHNESS both look about ready to start
their bloom and a few other Byers rebloomers also.  We are just over the
border from Zone 5 but we share summer temps with Zn 6.  Mostly ours start
mid-Sept when nights cool.  Ann in South Central Illinois     still sweltering
