<<Betty, I love this one. I do have a weakness for ruffled, laced pinks. What pink rebloomers do you have?>> Last year, I moved PINK ATTRACTION to
a new spot. Since I moved out here, I've collected several others,
Pinkness, October Splendor, & Cameo Blush. I have Doctor
Alan that Linda mentions but it didn't bloom this year.
I also have several pinks that
rebloom in California, Kiss Me Twice, Pink Champagne, Heidi Alaina, Treasured,
etc.. Of course, they don't rebloom in my zone 6 garden.
The extended background on this
one is (Presence x Pink Attraction) X Kentucky Woman. Since the pod parent
(Memphis Miss) didn't rebloom, I had little hope for the children. This
cross did give a number of seedlings with pretty blooms &
lace. I've crossed PA back to it with
hopes of bringing the rebloom back. Didn't really care for Pinkness
this year. Maybe next year.
