RE: Sutton Rebloom seedling


Yes, YB does carry rebloom. & is a sporadic survivor here. I finally managed to get a few seedlings from it (both ways), but it is stubborn.

That is a beauty also.  Does Yaquina Blue carry rebloom genes?  I have a hard time getting it go grow and bloom at all here in the desert.  I have a seedling that is an excellent repeat bloomer for me.  I call it my Faux Yaquina Blue.  Its blossoms are the same size and color and similar shape, and it grows like a weed.  Its fault is its short stalks and low bloom.  Ive been trying to get a cross between it and the real YB.  This fall I planted them side by side.  FYB has made a healthy clump.  YB may not make it at all.
