My garden consists of the following number of varieties: 5mtb, 13sdb,
2ib, 6sib, 4bb, 2mtb, 14 arib,
89tb, 4 jap, 2 spu, 1pcu, and i I douglas
between 15 march and 1 april 3 varsities bloomed, Lemon puff( mdb),
blessed(ib) and lollipop(mdb).
Between the 1st of April and the 15 of april 14 varieties started to
bloom 1 sib, 1 bb, 1sdb 11 tb.
Between the 16 of april and the 30 April 56 varieties started to bloom 3
sdb, 1bb, 3 aril, Hot (sdb) and jazzamatazz (sdb) not untill the 28th of
the month after more than 50 varieties for tb had bloomed.
Between the 1st of may and the 15 of may 16 of the 17 varieties had
started to bloom the last on to start blooming was River Hawk which
started to bloom on the 17.
Blessed Again (ib) which first bloomed on the 17 of march is still
blooming (clump about 3 years old but not ready to be divided).
My garden does not take well to being put in boxes and told when it
should bloom.
A large group has a hard struggle in including my Stop the Music but I
had put a bird feeder in one area of the garden and filled it with
sunflower seeds. Later
I saw a tv show which told me that the husks of the sun flower put out an
enzymes which kills all other plant life to make room the sun flower's
can get started and grow.
I don't know if it is true but i move the bird feeder and seem to be
getting better results in that area.
Still have not had a response on a Rancho Grande, and Stop the Music
having color shifts can it be soil conditions that affected it like it
dose Hydrangeas's?
