We were talking a while back about HOLY NIGHT and its rebloom here and there
(or there and not here, as the case may be).  I mentioned a reblooming
seedling from HN x BEST BET, neither of which reblooms here.  Now I find,
after a 19-above freeze, a fully-developed but not yet blooming stalk on
another seedling I've had for 8 years, which has never rebloomed before.  Sdlg
954T is HOLY NIGHT x 93RR2:(MARGARITA x MOMAUGUIN).  (Anner, you may recall
93RR2 as the old-fashioned-looking seedling with the cream standards and
wine-red velvet falls that you noticed at the Fredericksburg show.)  I'm not
aware of any rebloomers in the background of MARGARITA or MOMAUGUIN, so I'd
say this is more evidence that HOLY NIGHT has some potent rebloom genes that
cause its children to rebloom where it doesn't.  --  Griff
