	I am the father of GR, and I don't know what you call fall bloom 
alone.  It definitely is not rebloom because the consarned thing 
didn't bloom in the spring to begin with.  I have not had that 
problem with this cultivar, but have had fall bloom only on 
DIMESPOT, GR's sister, and some older ones like HELL'S FIRE 
and CEASE FIRE. DS and GR had no problems giving spring and 
fall bloom in TX, but neither likes MS too well yet they manage 
runted fall stalks.  CS never ever bloomed in the spring for me but 
always did in the fall.   I think that a 'fall bloomer only' puts all its 
energy into a 'rebloom time frame', and the increases don't mature 
in time for spring bloom.

Maybe this answer will make me well-known!
