Re: HYB: summer bloom

Same with the the stalk I found this morning - just walking down to the far rows to check pods and there was this stalk with buds showing color. Happy surprise.
Griff, are these maiden stalks? Have you (or others) had enough experience with summer maiden stalks on potential rebloomers to know whether or not this is a sign they will rebloom when they are older?
<Yesterday was a heart-lifter. As I checked a very slow-growing multi-budded 
stalk of Daughter of Stars X Kindle A Flame, musing about the light-colored
petals beginning to emerge, my gaze was arrested by two more budding stalks
showing color nearby  --  a pair of siblings from Eternal Bliss X Alleluia.
They had sneaked up on me, seemingly overnight.  I was smiling, then, when I
looked nearby and found a stalk up on another Wearing Rubies X 01J14 seedling. 
By then, I was laughing out loud.  It was, indeed, a good day, even with the
temperature in the 90s.  --  Griff>
