IMHO, if HTB and the three others  bloomed in the spring of 2000 *as 
well as* in the fall of 2000, they are rebloomers in your zone and 
should be reported as such (regardless of whether they are *sporadic* 
or *consistent*).  If, however, they bloomed *only* in the fall of 
2000 and *not* in the spring of 2000, they would not be reportable as 
rebloomers.

Only if it also bloomed in the spring of that same year in your 
garden.  

At least, that's how I understand rebloom reporting at this point in 
time.
