You're breaking my heart with these lovely AB's. I'd better go
outside with my own mug of coffee. ;)

here is the first flower from the second stalk much better color.
I like
the form even though it is freeze damaged I think the color will improve with
age.
Of the single survivor I moved it from the nursery to the seedling bed
in 08 and it was still a single rhizome.
It now has 9 rhizomes and the
stalk has stood up to 30 mph winds which I know is not as strong as you
get.
We are expecting severe storms tonight and tomorrow so we will see how
all the seedlings do
:)

So ... You used it as a pollen parent and I used it as the pod parent. My
use was because I thought it could set viable seeds, but it took awhile. I
planted 15 seeds that resulted in eight plants. I'd read the pedigree and
thought it should set seeds, so I acquired the plant. Sometime during the
years of growing of it, it was given the Mohr Medal and then I finally got
the pod with the subsequent germination. I may try and use it again because
the seedlings I saw this year had good form, great substance, sturdy stalks
and good growth. Only four bloomed, but there were a lot of good qualities.
How do those traits show up on this one?
