August 5, 2008.  (below) Right on Schedule!  Our experience is that Provence can bloom as early as June if they receive plenty of rain,  but our bloom season for these lovely plants really starts at the end of July and goes through the fall.  Meanwhile, our May blooms (Buena Vista, Twickle Purple, Munstead, Royal Velvet, and Premier)  have gotten their second wind and are blooming again.
