RE: FW: Repeat bloom stalks

You are right, Gerry.  Mesmerizer has never completely bloomed out for
me.  It always manages to come back.  I'm hoping Clarence will do the
same.  I'll have to wait and see.

Francelle,

Are you saying it has bloomed out for you multiple times? Do you leave 
it in the ground into the next spring so that it has a chance to make 
amends?

I have been growing it since it was introduced, and have often seen 
bloom on every decent-sized fan; and worried about bloomout, but always 
had late increases which started blooming the next winter, unless they 
were so small they waited until spring.

Not have a decent-sized rhizome for sale?-yes. Bloom out, not even
close.

But I think Monty put a special blessing on the rhizome he sent me, at 
least as long as grown here.
