Love that last shot of 'Hot Papaya' echinacea with 'Summer Sky?'? <br />I hope you can find an 'Aloha' ~ I stumbled across mine at our local nursery. They had so many different ones ~ I wanted them all but settled for two! Darn the budget.<br />Yes, my pale lavender Monarda does have some mildew problems ~ I really haven't ever grown one that doesn't but I don't have 'Raspberry Wine.'<br />Hope you have power & stay safe (and cool) ~ we got some rain last night. It was so welcome I felt like going out & dancing in it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-46383313190581865162012-07-06T17:54:44.162-04:002012-07-06T17:54:44.162-04:00I will have to think about planting coleus seeds n...I will have to think about planting coleus seeds next year.

Mine is a mess. Still healing, so the poor garden is on it's own while the J beetles munch away, and the drought takes down the weaklings. It's a sad state of affairs for a gardener! Zepherine is supposed to be a repeat bloomer, but it's in a lull with this heat, so we'll see. It has a tiny bit of blackspot, but it doesn't seem too bad. Mine is only about 1 1/2 years old, so the verdict is still out.RobinLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09543576456983999997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-23616958254886144662012-07-06T00:52:52.087-04:002012-07-06T00:52:52.087-04:00Oh dear so much destruction can happen to our gard...Oh dear so much destruction can happen to our gardens, it can be hard to bear.<br /><br />Good to see your beautiful flowers still going strong.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00476326456453144893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-28843567497841907822012-07-05T14:43:49.193-04:002012-07-05T14:43:49.193-04:00This has been one crazy summer!

At least you were safe! We dodged the bullet here. All the surrounding areas had horrible damage and still have no power.

Gosh, I'm glad your home was spared destruction. We're having the same weather here, too, with wild storms popping up and hail and weirdness. Some areas just north and south of us received over 7" of rain last night and we just have a trace every day. Not enough to wet the rain gauge. And temps in the 90's day after day. <br /><br />I'm so glad to see the beauties in your garden that survived the storm. Let's hope the weather calms down soon.
