Received this AM very sweet OSO Easy Peachy Cream & OSO Easy Paprika. They were promptly potted & should look better tomorrow after resting in their temp beds w/ fresh from bag potting soil! Paprika even flashed a bud open to show off that her trip was a piece of cake. Peachy Cream has a few to flash very soon ~ had a few limp tops that I didn't hesitate to clip to make her feel better.

I'll keep them potted for a while ~ w/ getting barraged by storms, hails & damaging winds these past 2 weeks ~ couldn't get their sites ready!

Thrilled & thanks again!!!

Despite the 3-digit temps these past 2 weeks she does not hesitate to keep producing blooms!

I'm just waiting for a li'l respite from this heat ~ wave & will sink *Honey Bun* in her f/s site. Paprika should be in her home by tomorrow ~ 88* should be good!

BTW this is the year of the J Beetles, here & I've been relentless in my pursuit of these rose-bloom-munching li'l villains. I must have drowned in soapy sol. tons of them ~ & think of the 50 eggs for every one that got away ~ so I can't quit the hunt!!! They haven't touched any of the 4 OSO Easy babes ~ thank heavens!

I meant to keep them there for at least a week to get over the stress of the travel but today was a gift from Ma Nature ~ cool & sunny ~ lower 80s temp w/ nice breeze & clouds to break the sun, intermittently ~ couldn't ask for a better day, so all 6 OSO Easy (4 Mango Salsa & 2 Paprika) babies are now in their permanent homes! I felt like Christmas in August!

BTW ~ Peachy Cream baby since planting in the ground (Mid Jul) has been a non-stop bloomer ~ started by producing 1 bud at a time daily, now for the first time has a stem w/ multiple buds to flash soon! Honey Bun has been in the 1-bud-a-day stage as well as Paprika #1 (heat-wave may have delayed adjustment time)!

FWIW

Happy gardening!!!
