Lee, I've found most of thosse on your list to be hardy, too. VAN GOGH has
never bloomed here, so I moved it to try again. Beverly Sills if iffy in
many gardens. How does it do for you> Some folks say it is pretty small.
I've had the most magnificent branching on that one. Last year it was so
good I photoed it for future... It's form was exactly like the drawing in
the Judges' handbook. Lasted a long time, too. The blooms have nice
substance. It is in a shadier spot so maybe the lesser amount of sun helped
the intensity. I can sit and look at that...
Orbiter of course.. a favorite.
What new ones have you ordered?
