That's good to know. I added two rzs of IMMORTALITY to my garden last
summer, but neither has yet graced me with bloom (in fact, one tried to
rot to death early this spring, but it's now recovered). I can, however,
add *4* more to the zone 3 rebloomer list, all of which were planted into
my garden just last summer. CHAMPAGNE ELEGANCE (TB) bloomed this spring,
then sent up a repeat stalk about a month later. WHAT AGAIN (SDB)
bloomed this spring and is currently blooming again. LILTING (TB)
bloomed last fall, this spring, and is sending up another stalk right
now. FAUX PAS (BB) bloomed last fall, this spring, and is also sending
up another stalk right now. I'm THRILLED! I really didn't think any of
my rebloomers would be able to do their thing this far north, esp not
during their first full growing season in my garden. Who ever said
rebloomers can't rebloom in zone 3???
