All beautiful! Wow, Paul, love your blooms. I have no idea about that noid, but it has an unusual shape to it and very pretty. That choc. drop is gorgeous! I have a young seedling (Blc. Rustic Spots) that has Bl. Richard Mueller in there, so that is kind of cool to see yours with that same name. I think I have years to wait on that bloom....but yours makes me a little anxious now! Thanks for sharing.

my ride was a benefit ride for HIV/AIDS on my bicycle. It went from Niagara Falls to NYC over the course of 7 days. Averaging about 80 miles a day. Was the toughest thing that I've ever done. We had days over a hundred miles and days under 65 where we climbed the Catskills. As hard and long as it was, I loved every minute of it and already plan on doing the ride again next year. Im having a little trouble with real world Re-entry but my chids are helping me through it

yep, wardii came right out the bottom of the basket, square in the middle. they opened up just in time for me to take a picture and leave. never got to see if the spots darkened or not. it was kind of a plain colored bloom.

i did the ride on a mtn bike that I outfitted with road tires for the training and ride. next year will def be on a road bike
