Re: RE: TB: mystery solved/late bloom


Hi Janet, that sounds like the Immortality someone brought to the sale last
weekend in a vase. It didn't look like mine in the bed -- mine was not
ruffled and didn't have those purple veins. This was stunning! Hoping mine
will do that some day. Maybe it's the soil...                  Cheers, Barb
