A few new blooms today:

1) The zinnia at last opens--seems like I've been drumming my fingers forever on this one. Grew it from seed. Next summer I think I'll skip it-- the cosmos has been much more prolific and the pollinators love it.
2) First hibiscus blossom of the season! 'Plum Crazy' opened this morning.
3) My Golden Jubilee (thanks, Donner!) is showing its first ever blooms!
4) Mountain Mint (Pycnanthemum muticum)
5) My caladium garden filling out; if only each bulb came stamped with a name, would make planting them artistically in the spring so much easier! ;-)
