Beautiful blooms everyone! I've missed being on here the last few days. Darned germs! LOL I went back to the doctor today, so hopefully better times are just around the corner. I do have a few things blooming that I wanted to share.

Snow, I hate to hear that you don't like your DS-70. Lin sent me a start of that one, and I absolutely love the foliage. It's dark and slightly rough. I love to rub the leaves between my fingers. :o) Mine hasn't bloomed yet, though, so I don't know about the fragrance, but the flowers look pretty. How's your lacunosa?

This is Strep Bristol's Blackbird. First time it's ever bloomed. I love the dark color. It really is almost black, but boy is the bloom shaped oddly. Maybe that will straighten out a little bit as it gets more mature.
