	Yes, we got the same!  The local weather person said that this 
rain event was the most rainfall recorded since July 6 but we are 
still nine inches behind.  Luckily, I unpotted all my bearded on 
Thursday and got my five display beds filled again.  I have about 
ten beardless in pots and two tubs of LA's yet to go plus some 
clean-up, and I'll be through.

	The heat, drought, and moving of things have prevented 
rebloom.  However, one new arrival budded in the pot and has now 
been put in a satin-sheeted bed with the other new rebloomers; 
hope to see it bloom before a frost.

	To the person who asked about the differences between 
HEMSTITCHED, BOUNTIFUL HARVEST, and AUTUMN CIRCUS, 
this is what I observed. (As I remember, all of these are out of the 
same pod).

	AUTUMN CIRCUS - Circus Stripes type) with complete veining 
on the falls from top to bottom...blue on white ground.

	BOUNTIFUL HARVEST - Reddish violet lines on white ground.  
The lines do not extend the entire length of the falls.

	HEMSTITCHED - the more typical plicata type as the name 
suggests, a narrow margin of violet-purple marks on a white ground.
