Betty, here's my version of MATRIX, from Hall in Ohio. From the photos,
they don't look the same. Photo is of a freshly opened bloom, not fully
relaxed, to show maximum color.
The start of MATRIX that Ginny
Spoon sent has yet to bloom here - stalk
hit by freeze the first fall,
stalks hit again last spring, again last
fall, again this spring. It looks
otherwise like a healthier plant than
this MATRIX.
However, this
MATRIX bloomed last spring, last fall, I think, and both
locations have
bloomed this spring.
May just be coincidence of timing and ages of the
clumps - certainly
hasn't been a great year and a half for
rebloomers.
What do you think, everybody, do Betty's and my MATRIX look
like the
same bloom?
