Not yet, Celia -- but I was startled today to see three bloomstalks
starting to form on Ghio's SELECT CIRCLE, which was planted in August,
and we haven't yet had real winter here. Early bloom here usually means
first week of May. Fingers crossed against another weird year. Last
year's very early warm weather and later freezes resulted in so many
strangely-branched plants that it wasn't possible to make good judgments
about some new seedlings. I'd hate to have to wait another year.
