Linda,I keep hearing lots of good things about FOGBOUND as a parent, but am curious to hear how it compares (health and reliability) to WISHFUL THINKING, for those who have grown both.
I realize that my growing conditions and yours have virtually nothing in common, but I thought you might take some interest in the fact that in my frigid northern, concrete clay, "native companion plant"-infested iris beds, WT hangs in like a trooper, whereas FOGBOUND couldn't make it through its first year.
