don't have to count number of years.>
Hmmm... what I look for in gardens I visit is 1 bloomstalk for 2
increases. However, I am interested in varieties that have a lot of
bloom and don't increase so fast that they have to be dug very often.
Not a commercial 'grower', plus sometimes I think these 'slower growers'
seem to be less prone to death and damage from weather ups & downs
(wet/dry; freezing/warm) .
