Bloom Day: July 2015

The hot, dry, early summer in Seattle has changed the bloom times for several plants this year. Normally I would have dahlias aplenty by now, but the dry conditions have stunted them. Other plants which would still be blooming normally have finished early or failed to appear. Here's a sample of a few things which are in bloom despite the odd weather:

Crocosmia 'Lucifer':

 
Lantana camara 'Miss Huff':

 
Lilium 'Scheherezade':

 
 
Rogersia cv. (inexplicably still in bloom - this should have finished months ago):

 
 Agapanthus 'Peter Pan':

 
Cestrum 'Orange Peel':

 
Dichroa febrifuga:

 
Trachelospermum jasminoides:

 
Campsis x tagliabuana 'Madame Galen':
