I NEEDED MY MORNING LAUGH....
Thank You For That!

All you have said is way too much fun!
However, You have me beat....
I also grew Gypsy's Bride and ALL I got was lush, huge leaves.
Not even a bud, much less a bloom.
And,
GREAT observation about the I. tricolors, because I was wondering the same thing. If it was just 'me', or the cool weather. I got very few seeds off of mine too. Flying Saucers only a few pods. Heavenly Blue 'one pod'. Also very few pods of Wedding Bells. At least the Wedding Bells is giving me a few more pods because I had it planted in a container and drug it into my outside building. Zero seeds from my Pearly Gates that FINALLY started blooming in November.
Wonder what the secret was on Heavenly Blues blooming in NW Houston, Zone 9, that I noticed 'covering' a fence!
Just loaded with blooms and seeds were forming. Hmmmmmm

A-hah ! ! !
All you said about 'Summer Skies' got pretty deep on my boots here in Texas.
Sort of makes one want to go put that boot somewhere in NC, huh!.....lol
And, now that you mention it, I do remember your photos from last year of the two different colors of your Heavenly Blues - and never even thought any more about it except that I remember how pretty the lighter one was.
Sooooo, 'Baby Blue' IT IS! Or, at least let us know what you will name yours!

Hi Janett,
No Blooms for me this year on the I. ochracea.
My first bud that I got
http://davesgarden.com/forums/fp.php?pid=1895659
did not open.
I am posting photo of what it did -
it never did open up - just shriveled and drooped down.
Same, exact thing on the buds posted last.
