Exactly Loraine! Fortunately rebloomers make the wait for spring much
shorter. :-) At the moment we have a really fun mix of flowers blooming,
MDBs, SDBs, IBs, TBs and Arilbreds. Ruby Eruption is blooming and is just
great! Going to cross it with a TB Plicata seedling.
Mike - still waiting for true spring weather and it appears that I have my
first really nice SA colorbreaker with good branching and bud count.
