Re: Re: CULT: replanting rebloomers brought inside

I'll have plenty of Hi to bring to the sale, and to share with you and the 
club next summer.  Hi grows great for me and increases rapidly.  It's one 
of my favorites.  It's tried to rebloom in the past, but always got frozen.  
Coral point has never even tried to rebloom here before, I didn't know it 
rebloomed at all.   I was really surprised when I noticed the stalk 
emerging.  That's one reason why I dug it up, just to see if it would.  I'm 
surprised it kept growing and bloomed.  It scored definate points for 
that.
