I would have to agree with wot V sez:

Almost exactly trhe situation here, much as I want them to do well. Flights
of Fancy seems to be the best performer out of the 3 luminatas I have from
KK, and even it is poor.
>I would like to see ROARING JELLY (SIB) or PELE (SDB) get it.
I don't have Roaring Jelly, but it is on my most coveted list. I think the
Siberians are most deserving. PELE hasn't done much for me yet. I had one
rather cute bloom. I think it is a great pity that Barry Blyth's SDB's
aren't more widely grown O/S. Some of his more recent ones, which have
Celcius in their ancestry, are quite amazing, and, by his account, some are
rebloomers, or send up second bloom stalks from the same rhizome.
