REB: more rebloom from the archives

Temperatures were below average for most of July 2003 in Knoxville, tying the record low of 57 on July 24. Also low most of June. Good year for rebloom.
Chuck, I've looked up the lows for Knoxville airport from ~June 23 thru Aug 2 if you want them.

<VIOLET MUSIC is still blooming, struggling with the heat.  One deformed
(missing standard, extra fall, twisted) bloom open on SUMMER WHITEWINGS,
but lots more buds to go plus two more stalks.

On the ridgetop in clay:
SIGN OF LEO (no pollen, drat) has a couple of stalks.  IMMORTALITY has
at least one stalk just showing in the fan - probably will be quite a
few more.

<Stalks forming on VIOLET MIRACLE, VIOLET MUSIC .... INNOCENT STAR.
Blooms open on BELVI QUEEN, SUMMER WHITEWINGS, and IMMORTALITY.>
