Thanks to Paghat & Sue, for answers.

The bed is actually shaded in the AM, and gets dappled afternoon sun and
full sun in the late afternoon. The drawback? It's out of reach of my
current hose configuration, and thus misses out on the extra watering.
:-( I will get another hose hooked up and go clip them....actually, we've
had a couple of days of thunderstorms & rain, so maybe a good deadheading
will get me more flowers now that it's cool & moist.

Thanks again.
