After seeing your bushes, some of them anyway, I've got to water more often,
I've been so busy with my life and work that I've let the bushes water
themselves (high ground water in my area), but apparently it's not nearly
enough, that last shot looked so lush, what time of year was it taken? It
looks like mine at the beginning of the blooming season, but now mine just
look I dont know, just eeeeeehhhhh, even though the leaves are dark green,
they are not nearly as lush and glossy as yours.

Thanks for the shots, something to be looking into.

Psst! Go get a Don Juan! Blooms all year! Smells nice (not strong but
rosey)!
GORGEOUS hybrid tea type blooms! Very Vigorous!

Looks like this!

of zinnias and Desert Peace, as seen this morning:

And now, back to one of my favorite current blooms (today at least):

How about that yellow? For some reason, I like it even better than the
first bloom in the series...
