Loic,  maybe that's just year to year variability?  


And was there not some noise at one point about urging  more circumspection 
generally in denominating cultivars as  "rebloomers" so that the rail may, 
perhaps, now be perceived to  be somewhat higher than previously, viz a viz the 
normative expectations  ...or am I misremembering?
 
After all, one understands that gains are being made, and it  follows that 
the standard within the category must also be  evolving. Perhaps because, to the 
discriminating, some newer  rebloomers are better rebloomers, fewer lesser 
cultivars are perceived  to be worthy of introduction, so that whereas the 
quantities of  introductions are  more or less static, the overall quality of the  
introductions is higher.
