Margie, It does NOT rebloom for me in zone 6, but has been reported by
several people in the warmer climates.
I think all of the ancestors you list have rebloomed somewhere.
Chief Redskin and Bronco Brown introduce plicata into the mix, which is one of
the reasons I've not used it before now. The other reason is that
Barbara My Love tends to have bad branching here.
It's not that
I don't like plicata, it's just that I don't want plicata in this particular
line. It's mainly the beetroot on cream that I'm not encouraging.
If it does rebloom..........where does the
rebloom come from? (pedigree below).
(Chief Redskin x Bronco Brown) x Speculator) X S216C: (Oktoberfest x
Good Show).

Betty.................. do I understand
correctly that it reblooms for both you and Mike??? Is that what I'm
reading/hearing??? It has never rebloomed here.

Thanks Mike. It blooms very early here, plus it needs to be moved
this year. Could move it with pods on it but prefer not to.
, although rebloom is more
prevalent when it is used as pollen parent crossed to
rebloomers.

Seems to be good both ways, although rebloom is
more prevalent when it is used as pollen parent crossed to
rebloomers.

Mike, have you used it much as a pollen parent? If so is it
doing as well as it does as a pod parent?
both in bloom and as a
parent.
