Re: HYB: Maiden bloom: anomalies

The only anomalies I've seen have been for those few seedlings that have had maiden bloom in the fall. Two seedlings had very nice maiden bloom, then crummy bloom (small, colors & form not as nice) the following spring, and so far, haven't bloomed in the fall again.
The poorer bloom in spring is probably due to spring freeze damage and dry weather during bloom, so that doesn't help answer your question at all :-(
