HYB: REB: Imm kid, rebloom?


Just found a maiden stalk on a seedling from IMM & LEAPS AND BOUNDS. Main spring bloom season ended mid to late May, so this is definitely not main spring bloom season.

But since it's maiden bloom, I'm not sure whether it is any indication of future bloom season(s). Siblings that did bloom this spring were not much to look at.

LEAPS AND BOUNDS has not been reported to rebloom anywhere, but BETTY DUNN has, & she is from the fairly strong rebloomer, CHAMPAGNE ELEGANCE, which does summer bloom for some people. So I guess it <might> be a summer bloomer. 3 fans, including terminal, one stalk.

LEAPS AND BOUNDS (O. D. Niswonger, R. 2001) Sdlg. 66-97. TB, 30" (76 cm), M S. white, hint of blue; style arms white; F. pink fuchsia; beards dark tangerine. Betty Dunn X Imprimis. Cape Iris 2001

Griff, on the photos group, you mentioned some seedlings blooming for you now - is this late "spring" bloom or have the rest of the TBs finished for you?

Just wondering if you think this is maybe some kind of rebloom or just late spring season bloom.
