I have a few blooms left, not nearly as many as I'd like to have this time of year but it's getting late for me.

Here's "Otto's Thrill" Dahlia today. I planted the tubers in May, it rained the entire month of May and the first half of June. I really thought I'd lost it til I saw a few leaves sprouting in July.
