Lovely Blooms Izhar bhai especially the blue petunias :)

Night phlox gets extremely fragrant at late night hours..say from 12:00 a.m on wards.

Apart from that, wait for the heat, higher temperature also induces the blooms to produce more fragrance similar to vanilla flavored cake :P

They will be transferred to beds already prepared for them, almost half of these will be given away, i will be buying some more roses which i have seen in nurseries, dont know the name..

Great shots. Poppy is looking great with outstanding contrasting background flowers.
Cinarerias are also getting ready for show.
