Some post I made about all rebloom leading to yellow, white and purple, can't
remember the title, but your response was that I'd forgot to mention short.

<<owever, the reblooming seedlings here so far have been frustratingly short,
maybe that's what you meant? >>

Fred, if you have time and inclination and know, would you say a little more
about this? Are there two sets of factors that result in large flowers or
several sets or who knows how many? & maybe an example? Probably asking for
too much.

<There are many genetic factors involved in the size of flower not just
a few. >

Something got garbled in transmission, Betty. VIOLET MIRACLE, HARVEST OF
MEMORIES, TEA LEAVES, BELVI QUEEN, MATRIX are all tall rebloomers here.

And I've even gotten a <few> tall (but non-reblooming) seedlings from IMM.

However, the reblooming seedlings here so far have been frustratingly short,
maybe that's what you meant?

<Does all rebloom lead to short stalks as Linda suspects?>

Don't worry, Loic, I haven't discarded rebloom seedlings so far, short & small
flowered or not, <if> form isn't totally retro (i.e., like G.P. Brown
introductions).
