This year is no exception and there are more than 60 flower buds in view right now (Nov. 19th). However, temperature dropped to 36 degrees F. last night and there may be some damage -- will check them later today and see how they have fared. Docturf |

The photos on this page don't show those colors either. Orangey-yellow I think is about right- gold perhaps. |
