Very nice Rose.  Glad to see rebloomers being hybridized in my same area. Those seedlings sound exciting. Particularly those out of final episode. Can't wait to see how they turn out. You are having much better rebloom than I am. We had a month drought this summer. It seemed to rain all around except my place! The only iris that rebloomed fully was midsummer nights dream. Immortality and daughter of stars didn't make it (4 bloom stalks zapped a couple days ago, and I even covered them.) just too cold. I'm in a valley near sac river and fantastic caverns and the cold seems to settle here. People close by haven't had a killing frost like I have. No seedlings tried to rebloom. But they were moved this summer and got pretty dried out. Keep up the great work!

Hi all- finally I am seeing TB reblooming seedlings.
This is spring spring bloom from 08 cross-it is a Pink Attraction x Magical Encounter.
It has a firm, fat bud stalk just breaking the fan today-10/23/10.
I have bloom stalks noted on 1 Clarence sdl and 1 Final Episode sdl-can't wait to see the blooms.
Rebloom season has been a little slow and late this year, also limited to about half of the varieites that rebloomed last year.  Heat, lack of water and less time to spend in the garden in the established section being all invovled.
2 Different Worlds, Lest We Forget, Summer Tsunami, Fresh Insight, Berry Ripple being newer plants in the garden all in flower -
Betty's plants that always seem to bloom for me-Another Bridge, Returning Chameleon, Echo Location, Just Call Me, and Star Gate with stalks tall or in bloom.
Dependable for several years-My Friend Jonathan, Northern Lights, Bethany Claire, Love Goes On, Concoction, Precious Little Pink, Bella Rose, Champagen Encore, I Bless, Pink Attraction, October, Harvest of Memories, Orange Harvest, Corn Husker, Wedding in Canna, Violet Miracle, Tea Leaves, Golden Child, Baby Blessed, Clarence, Again and Again.
All together about 56 in bud or bloom, so not all listed here.
