| Just bear it, just bear it. And when you can’t bear the beauty any longer, send some my way. You must be a very good garden mommy, as your YL is very healthy and happy. Mine is about to call Child Protective Services or run away from home soon. Audrey |

| Juliet those are wonderful! |

| Interesting...does Young Lycidas typically have this 2-tone appearance for you? I was stumbling across another lesser known Austin yesterday, Warwick Castle, that occasionally has a similar effect of 2-tone gradulation and it was quite pleasing to the eye, much like your Young Lycidas. |

| Very pretty. I love the color and how it's packed with petals. How's the fragrance and rebloom? Thanks for sharing your pictures. |

| Thanks also to Florence, Christina and Jeff for your kindness. Jeff, it's fragrance wafts in my garden. It is strong, rather clove at times and very fresh and tea-like other times. It hasn't stopped blooming since it started a few weeks ago. Clusters of eight blooms too. LOVE IT! Juliet |
